All male citizens perform military service for life. At that time, there was no professional army, but the army and agriculture were one. As long as there is war, all male citizens need to participate in it. In order to maintain the stability of the regime, Spartan education has a strong military color. The purpose of its education is to cultivate and train the aristocratic children of slave owners to become strong-bodied soldiers with intense military physical exercise. Sparta regards education as a national matter, and education is all organized, managed and controlled by the state.

Children belong to the state and are raised by parents rather than the state before the age of 7. From the age of seven, they were sent to national educational institutions until the age of 18, and received harsh military training and moral indoctrination, so that they could develop a healthy body, tenacious will, courage, obedience and patriotism.

The main contents of education are running, jumping, discus throwing, javelin throwing and wrestling, as well as unarmed combat, horseback riding, swimming, music and dancing. 18-year-old youths were sent to the corps of non-commissioned officers for special military training until they were 20 years old and officially granted citizenship at the age of 30. It is worth noting that Sparta attached importance to women's education, and girls also received gymnastics and military training.

Sparta:

Sparta (σ π? ρτη? ) is one of the ancient Greek city states. In ancient Greek history, Sparta refers to the southeast of the Peloponnesian Peninsula, the south of the Lacconia Plain, and the main settlement on the west bank of the Europa River, while the city-state is called Rasimeng (Greek: λ α κ ε δ α? μ ω ν English: Lacedaemon).

Sparta is famous for its harsh discipline, oligarchy and militarism. Sparta's regime is oligarchy. In the Peloponnesian War, the Peloponnesian League led by Sparta defeated the Tyrol League led by Athens and occupied the whole of Greece. However, Sparta was defeated by the emerging Thebes soon after it ruled Greece. After the rise of northern Macedonia, Sparta lost its influence in Greece.

The original meaning of "Sparta" is "a plain that can be cultivated". Around 1 1 century BC, a group of Greek tribes called Dorians invaded the southern Lagonia. They destroyed the original city-state and settled here. This is the Spartan city of Dorians: but it has neither walls nor decent streets. Spartans are Dorians who came here.
