Athens and Sparta were city states in ancient Greece. The closest thing today would be counties with major cities in the county. The city controlled a large area around themselves more than most cities today, but not the whole country itself. Also the city states were normally either allied, rivals, or even both at times. Sparta was a military dominated dictatorship city state that rivaled Athens who was a more education based democracy.
