The spartan population was mostly dominated by males (for military purposes it was favorable to have a baby boy). Most of the people were very devoted to athletics and military like jobs.

Sparta, being a military focused city-state did not really have a very set in stone form of government. The army leaders had a lot of power, authority, and influence over the rest of the city-state.

Corinthian Politics

Origionally, Corinth was ruled by tyrants, but then adopted a system of about 80 people making decisions and helping the city-state together.

Sparta's Economy

16olsopar — 2015-02-13 05:52:41 UTC

Sparta was extremely dependent on agriculture. They grew lots of crops, and trade was not one of the most important things to them, so they had quite a bit of extra food. Invading other city-states also helped to get Sparta's funds in order, and helped them have supplies that they needed.

Corinth's Economy

16olsopar — 2015-02-13 05:52:46 UTC

Corinth was known for trading and shipping numerous goods and foods. They made a lot of money, and also gained most of their vital resources through trade and exporting.

My opinion

In my opinion, I think that Sparta was much more influential in Ancient Greek history, not only because there are numerous movies about this ancient Greek civilization, but also because Sparta was feared, and respected by almost all of Ancient Greece. Sparta was also very successful with their military, and they are one of the best known Greek civilizations to date.
