Spartan appreciation thread. Inspired by the thread created by swarthy Greeks thinking they wuz Spartans and Hellenez and SHIIEEET.
>Ancient Spartans were a minority in their own society, at best they represented about 10% of their state at any given time and around the 3rd century BC their population rapidly declined
>Spartans descended from unmixed Dorians that migrated from Central Europe, they had light hair and light eyes which is almost absent in modern day Greeks and Ancient Greek native population (helots)
>They were the best fighters and literal ubermensch because of their eugenics program of killing offspring that didn't meet requirement
>they excercised daily
>their jobs were either being a professional soldier or being apart of the government
>their women were fit, quite literally they excercised and were feed the same food as the men. Spartan women were also considered citizens and allowed to vote unlike the women of Athens. Spartan women were also not confined to their house and they wore thigh-high dresses.
>Spartan women also excercised naked
>70% of their pop were helots (native Greek slaves), these helots were a subhuman bunch and were used to support Spartans by farming their lands and providing them food
>every year the Spartans would declare war on their own population of helots to curb their growth
modern-day Greeks are not descended from ancient Spartans. It's literally impossible. When you see a Greek claiming Spartan descent be kind and Redpill him. Modern-day Greeks can at best claim descent of helots.
>more facts to come
>"It's a canadian thread"
Spartans were homosexuals and communist as well. Athen high culture, not Lycurgan military collectivism alright.
Why are Canadians so racist?
>constant shitposting about Finns being mongols
>constant shitposting about other countries not being descended from themselves
>constant shitposting about OP's own whiteness
Literally the most bigoted flag on this board

Oh here he goes again. Look at you Canada, posting on /int/ thinking you just said some smart shit.
Out of all countries that post here Canadians are the ones that piss me off the most. Their entire fucking culture makes no sense. What exactly is it that you do? Wear flannel shirts and slurp syrup?
If I think of America I think of guns, pop culture and freedom. Sure, lots of ignorant baboons but at least they wear their retardation like a badge of honor, use it as a cultural identity, their flag promotes the unity of the country with all these stripes and stars.
Germany is orderly, a country that prides itself on its rules and their citizens who follow them. It's also the country with the biggest responsibility when it comes to destroying Europe with its two world wars and government sanctioned refugee crisis. Their flag waves strong colors, black, red and gold. A dominant flag for a dominant country.
Russia is strong and stubborn to a fault. They live hard lives and don't complain about it. Obviously the entire country is pretty much a shithole but it breeds strong people who can take care of themselves. Their flag represents the cold, the white, the blue but also the burning passion in the red, it all comes together to signify that their country is bleak but there is strength in that.
But Canada, what are they fucking known for? Being "nice", i guess? Is that your role in the world? Being fucking nice? That's not an achievement. Everyone can be nice. It's easy to be nice. You just don't have to say anything bad.
So what did your fucking country decide to put on their flag to show the entire world what Canada is all about? A leaf. A FUCKING LEAF. You decided that you like to slurp your terribad syrup so damn much that you might as well put the fucking leaf that it's made of on the flag. You don't even respect your own country so why the hell should I?

One of the defining works of ancient Greek literature, The History of the Peloponnesean Wars by Thucydides, clearly describes how the two types of Greeks went to war with each other. Spartans were an oligarchic society, controlled by the few. Athenians were a democratic society, controlled by the many.
Athens was a rich city of traders. Sparta was a poor society of feudal warriors. During the long war, both principles were violated by the opposing side. The proud Spartan warriors were made to surrender--which was thought unthinkable, on one occasion. The rich Athenians lost all their colonies, in the end.

Spartans were not racially or ethnically Greek.
>>61852395
Spartans were not homosexuals. You were thinking about Athenians who were also pedophiles.

Spartans ate the best food. They did not work the fields or were merchants. They were a warrior aristocracy who's primary jobs were either in the military or government field. Women also ate high quality of foods in contrast to Athenian women as they were expected to breed the best fighters.
Spartan society
10% Spartans
20% Freeman/Periokoi (not citizens)
70% Helots (native Greek Slaves)

>Spartans were not racially or ethnically Greek.
All Greeks went to Delphi, including Spartans.

>Spartans ate the best food.
Spartan warrior aristocracy ate the worst food possible, attested by numerous sources.

Spartans had sex with their older comrades in the young age.
>>61853613
>best food
They ate only simple food, no extra comfort or luxury allowed. They couldn't buy imports because no money except huge local iron sticks.
the spartans were iliryans as macedonians are
>it's that triggered immigrant from pol
no (you)s there huh
>>61852515
Another thing to remember is that Spartans promised freedom from the Athenian Empire, but in the end became worse oppressors than the enemy. The Greeks went from ritualized warfare to total warfare, and weakened themselves so that Phillip of Macedonia conquered them all.

REEEEEE
PHILOSOPHY, AND REPUBLICANISM, WERE CREATED BY THE DORIANS —SPARTANS, AND CRETANS.
SPARTA WAS A REPUBLIC, NOT A MONARCHY, NOR A DEMOCRACY, NOR A DIARCHY.
THE DORIANS WERE AN ARYANID PEOPLE FROM CENTRAL EUROPA, INHABITING THE BASIN OF THE UPPER DANUBE, HENCE THEIR NAME "DORIANS", WHICH IS ETYMOLOGICALLY COGNATE WITH "DONARIS", ONE OF THE NAMES FOR THE UPPER DANUBE.

Sparta had kings, and its citizens were vicious slavers, alike all ancient Greeks. The ideological struggle between Athens and Sparta was whether to restrict the democratic vote to 40% or 5% of the population.
i like hte meme
god i hate canadians

>Sparta had kings...
THE SPARTAN POLITICAL STRUCTURE WAS CONSTITUTED BY THREE BODIES: THE GEROUSIA, THE EPHORATE, THE APELLA.
THE KINGS WERE MERE HEADS OF STATE WITH EXECUTIVE POWERS; THEY DID NOT HAVE ABSOLUTE POWER, THEREFORE IT WAS NOT A MONARCHY.
THE POPULACE AS SUCH, OUTSIDE THE ELECT GROUP OF THE APELLA, HAD NO POLITICAL POWER, THEREFORE IT WAS NOT A DEMOCRACY.
ALL POLITICAL MOTIONS ISSUED FROM AND OCCURRED AMONG THE THREE POLITICAL BODIES; IT WAS A REPUBLIC.
>... and its citizens were vicious slavers, alike all ancient Greeks.
I AM UNSURE REGARDING WHETHER THE HELOTS WERE ACTUALLY SLAVES, BECAUSE:
1. THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO NEED TO ENSLAVE THEM IF THERE WAS A CASTE SYSTEM —AND IT IS CERTAIN THAT THERE WAS.
2. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANY KIND PROVING THAT THE SPARTANS WERE SLAVERS.
3. MANY OF THE ANECDOTAL STORIES REGARDING THE ALLEGEDLY BRUTAL MANNER IN WHICH THE SPARTANS TREATED THE HELOTS —EXEMPLI GRATIA: YEARLY DECLARING WAR ON THEM, CONSTANTLY PILLAGING THEM, ETCETERA— ARE PROVEN FALSE, OFTEN BY THEIR SHEER ABSURDITY.
4. SINCE THE DORIANS, AND CONSEQUENTLY THE SPARTANS, WERE ARYANIDS, IT IS MOST PROBABLE THAT THEY ACTUALLY DESPISED SLAVERY.
>The ideological struggle between Athens and Sparta was whether to restrict the democratic vote to 40% or 5% of the population.
THE IDEOLOGICAL STRUGGLE BETWEEN SPARTA, AND ATHENS, WAS THAT —IDEOLOGICAL—; ID EST: BASED ON A RADICAL DIFFERENCE OF MENTALITY, AND WORLDVIEW, NOT ON SOCIOPOLITICAL SUPERFLUITIES, AND MINUTIAE, LIKE DEMOCRATIC VOTE RESTRICTIONS.
