Actual Reason Why Spartan Empire Went Extinct

Sound like America

There was no such thing as a Spartan empire.

Then, and again, sing of three hundred men!

Sounds like the US today

If you think of greatest warrior clans plzzz search about Rajputs and Sikhs

Probably politics

"This Is Sparta!!"

- Sun Tzu

Music ruins this

Imagine how we think some teachers was bad and cruel in our schools today.
Then imagine being offered into school in sparta.

Because they were very very gay.

Sounds like the first communists

Long live the Persian Empire

Far better education than lgbt school

Tbh traditional warfare is still more interesting and "tactical" that moder warfare

you are using a very wrong term. "Greece" that's a new term used for todays country but it never existed then it is not a small thing and is very important thing

Sparta's government cared less and less about the culture and the soldiers since about late 5 century BC...and their soldiers became weaker as the years went by...as Sparta's population increased there was allot of corruption in the city and along with the first spartan retreat in a battle somewhere in 371BC they were not elite anymore...

Who remembers those little music videos they would play in class. MACEDON-I-A-A-A-A-A-A-A-A MACEDONIAAAA Each dash is a pause like i am titanium

There downfall is kinda what the entire world is going through right now, greedy politicians and generals that care more about themselves then the people

Rome played them all like a fiddle.

You mean Zeus came down and wiped them out, then drive the blade into Kratos chest.

Generally a very good video explaining the downfall of Sparta, however explanation of the beginning of the second peloponnesian war i think was misinterpreted, due to the huge growth of the athenian empire, Sparta became very tense with another empire that could challenge them for the hegemoni of greece, however this did not mean that the kings of Sparta were eager to go into battle, it is actually said that the king Archidamus the 2nd was really against fighting in the war, but due to the decision by the Spartan Ecclessia they went to war. Further than this it was actually Athens that provoked Corinth first, when Athens instructed one of Corinth's colonies, Potidaea, to tear down it’s walls when it didn’t want to, and even before this Athens also interfered in one of Corinths internal matter and fought against them in a battle on the sea even though they were only supposed to do something if Corinth got close to the mainland.

Sounds like 🇺🇸. Unfortunately

Uh no,
there was more than 300 spartans during that war and the fact you're excluding other greek states shows you're limited in the understanding of the area and the people involved.

is the xerxes of persia the first or second? xerxes II is the one mentioned in the bible in the book of esther

The two other videos mention they killed the babies two different ways now your saying not at all? Untrustworthy dx

Interesting

Sparta was a city-state not an empire, lol

After looking up "BCE", I'm unsubscribing. I'm not going to support an anti Christ channel.

Sparta was not an empire, it was a kingdom.

Doesn’t change the fact that Sparta lost more battles against Athens than they won. Their great naval victories came with aid from Persia. Athenians and Thebes both smashed Spartan armies on land as well as at sea. To put it quite plainly Spartans are extremely overrated.

Exceptionnel. Merci

The Athenians were Not at Thermopoly.

Oh wow

The Spartans put their daughters on a pedestal

I'd wager that Spartans considered sparta the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Wealth gaps, leaders becoming greedy and thinking of themselves hmmm weird. Wonder who that sounds like

Moral of the history :- Greed blinds the good

ΣΠΑΡΤΗ!!!!!!

It took Macedonia 2 generations - Filip and Alexander to complitely reform and take full controll of the hellenic republic, that was build for hundreds of years.
I wish I could live 100 more years to watch documentaries about how USA jas build theiur empire based on lies and in the end it all got back to bite them, untill their breakdown.

there lying to us, The Spartan Heiresses were an immensely wealthy group of women. During and after the collapse of Sparta, where did this wealth go? Aristotel diatribe against the position of women in Sparta, which he regards as a corruption of the natural order and a root cause of the inequality of Spartan society a weakness as a political power. As he points out, the territory of Sparta could easily support a levy of 30,000 hoplites and 1,500 cavalry, but the bad laws with regard to property and inheritance and the resulting greed and influence of the women have driven the number of full Spartan citizens below 1,000. Plutarch corroborates the story of growing inequality. He describes the state of Sparta a century later, around 240 BC, when the forces that Aristotle identified as key to the decline of Sparta had spun entirely out of control.

This sound familiar to anyone or is it just me?

Intresting video, but unfortunbately not that well documented. For example it makes a confusion between helots, perioeci and allies.
Also claiming that spartans are responsable for the breaking of the peace of Nicias is quite hard to understand, since after this peace the was starts agains between Sparta and Athens because of Athen's attempt to invade sicily.

You know Sparta and Athens each seem to be good At one specific area of war one is the strength and courage needed to be a soldier the other the intelligence and resources to build powerful machines of war maybe that’s the reason the Greeks and Spartans were unbeatable by litraley anyone when they worked together

I love how you completely glasses over the fact that most Spartans were gay pedophiliacs that had a regular tradition of sexually assaulting the children they sent it to the agony

It’s almost like you are asking me why Gay people went extinct ????

Sometimes I forget that the populations were so small back then that all these epic battles probably had fewer people than an average Texas high school football game.

They didnt go extinct. They never existed. No one goes to war dressed like that. 🤣

Ahhhhh assassins creed

Because they were impotent. Numbers don’t lie
