Where would you rather live?

I would rather live in Sparta because in Sparta women have


considerable freedom unlike the Athens the women did not
have much freedom. The women in Sparta are responsible for
managing the family estates. Spartan women could even inherit
property, and that was a rare right. But women who live in
Athens cannot inherit any property. In spartan, girls were
encouraged to be fit and strong to run, wrestle, and played
sports. As for the men at age seven the boys would leave home
and move into military barracks. They would march and train
during the day for school then sleep on hard benches at night.
Also, unlike Athens the Spartans encourage stealthies and if the
men would get caught while trying to steal food then they will
be beat not for stealing the food but getting caught for stealing.
I want to live in Sparta because they teach responsibilities and
can make women and men strong enough for any battle.
