"Spartan Warriors"IntroductionAs you read in this chapter, Sparta was a military nation primarily interested in becoming the strongest city-state in Greece. To accomplish this, Spartans had strict and unusual dictates that created fighting men and strong women. The Spartans expected hostile environments for their warrior citizens, and so they trained their youth to become survivors under the harshest conditions. Even today, the word "Spartan" means strict, severe, and self-denying.
