To be perfect is to be disciplined, the more perfect you become, the closer to God you will march. A perfect death is the glory of God's grace for a true warrior.

To my knowledge learned in my teenage years while studying to become a teacher and in studying the history of education I found that the amount of slaves was so overwhelming compared to the slavers class that the risk of rebellion was a permanent condition. The slavers were in danger of dying at the hands of the slaves at any moment if they were not prepared. Military training was indispensable in order to maintain order and submission over the slaves. It is known that a daily raid over the slaves camp was performed as a form of training and to kill the youngest and strongest slaves. This was the fundamental reason for the entire life requirement of investing into the arts of combat and physical condition. Terror was the method of domination over the slaves.

In section 9.3 it says: “Hence it was that the Ephors (as Aristotle tells us), when they entered upon their office, caused proclamation to be made, that the people should shave the upper lip, and be obedient to the laws, that they might not be under the necessity of having recourse to severity. As for the shaving of the upper lip, in my opinion, all the design of that injunction is, to teach the youth obedience in the smallest matters.”

I know enough of Sparta and each time regardless of depth and insight I confirm the profound sociopathic nature of all class divided eras and " cultures" . in particular the Spartans are anecdotal and prototype of the failed attempts of a dehumanized society to survive in a world made as their image. One of brutal animalistic clashes and devoid of love and solidarity . one of disrespect for human life and dignity. This are lessons of history to avoid and learn how a society should not be organized. Nothing more could be learned form them. If something good could be learned from that experience let me know and I'll gladly share it with any historian , archeologist and intellectual willing to use that contribution. History after all exist as a study to learn from the past more than learn the past as simple information.

Thank you for the valuable information

Greece is so beatiful . Thanks for building this wonderful video🙏🙏🤠🤠

This really is the best documentary on Ancient Sparta I´ve seen. Well done.

Amazing narration.....great window into Spartans Bettany...

This was brilliant Thank you for uploading . Could anyone tell me who wrote the score? It is equally as brilliant.

HEEEEEEEYYOOO!!!! Loved that opening scream so much they used it twice to introduce Spartans.

@@jamescameron4966 when she mentioned that *homosexuality was compulsory in Sparta* she blatantly lied. We have two main historical references for Sparta, one a direct one from Xenophon who lived amongst the Spartans and Plutarch whom came a few centuries later. Both indicate that homosexuality was despised by the Spartans and and if an adult mentor abused a child that was given to him he would face severe legal penalties.

Really like TIMELINE, YES IV'E SUBSCRIBED ON IT

Timeline is awesome, I’m subscribing to their streaming service! Much better “history” programs than the history channel!

Brilliant, love it, the music is incredible too.

I love how Athens tried so many times to take Sparta (Athenians loved a war), but never could. Spartans eventually, fed-up, marched on Athens.. to the front door. Be cause they could. Then walked away; message sent lmao. Love it.

Lol you think the story is true? The whole perception people have of the Spartans is wrong. This documentary just spreads some of the most common misconceptions with the hopes of retaining viewers and avoiding controversy. I suggest you do some research on the Spartans. The athenians were much more “warrior-like” than the Spartans. The Spartans were allies with the Persians for a long time.

Thracian music & vocals in documentary about man-loving Greeks...

15:24 You doubt he had any concept of the pity of war? I completely disagree. I'd be shocked if he didn't. Rallying the men for war is not synonomous with having an utter disregard for the ultimate waste of human life that war provides. He and the men knew that they had to fight, regardless of whether it was " a pity " or not, so without any other options you'd better double down on your passion for war or else you'll have a race of men busy contemplating "the pity of war" rather than hardening their hearts and fighting until the last man.

QUESTION: What did the Spartan warriors gain in death? Other groups with warrior philosophies promised a kind of heaven to those who died in battle: Valhalla for Vikings, Janna for Muslim Jihadis. But Greeks didn't have heaven for ordinary people, did it? Did Sparta diverge a bit from this hopelessness and offer immortality?

I'm in love with the narrator.

Must respect to the discipline and principles that were important to such brave honorable people as the Spartans...

The V shape formation and line formation using thier shields and spears are effective defense against advancing enemies. Spartans are the greatest warriors.
