“The charm of history & its enigmatic lesson consist
in the fact that, from age to age, nothing changes
& yet everything is completely different.”

Ancient Greece

Both Athens and Sparta hold historic value for Greece and the world. Athens is the capital and the largest
city of Greece. It is a center for economic, political, financial and culture life in Greece. Athens is the symbol
of freedom, art, and democracy in the conscience of the civilized world. Athens took its name from the
goddess Athena, the goddess of wisdom and knowledge.

Sparta, a beautiful town near the river Evrotas, located in the center of the Peloponnese in southern Greece.
Sparta was the Dorian Greek military state, considered as the protector of Greece as it was providing large
army to Greece for many years. At present, Sparta is the administrative capital of the prefecture of Laconia.

The two cities were bitter rivals in ancient times in Greece. Geographically they are very close to each
other on map, but very different in their values, life styles, and culture.
