Spartan

Spartans, the warriors of Sparta, are most legendary warriors during the classical age. Spartans only had one profession of being a full-time soldier because that is their path and their life. Spartans do not involve themselves with any manual work because that is the job for Helot. The word ‘Spartan’ can be defined as someone who is a person of great courage and self-discipline. When people mention Spartans, the key event and idea that comes to mind is the Battle of Thermopylae and the movie film

Have you ever heard of the dominant Spartan army. The Spartan army became one of, if not the strongest army of its time through their way of strict teaching and training. The ways of the Spartans were very strict and they were a militaristic society. A member of Sparta devoted their life to the state and served in battle or in some way to help their army. Becoming a Spartan warrior started from the exact moment a baby came out of the womb. After a baby was born it was examined

The movie 300, tells the story of the Persian and Spartan War also known as the Battle of Thermopylae. At the beginning of the movie, a Persian messenger is sent to Sparta to talk to the King of Sparta, Leonidas. As Leonidas has a chat with the messenger, Leonidas brings out his sword and holds it against the messenger because he feels as if the messenger had threaten and disrespected his city and insulted his Queen. Leonidas then stomps on the ground and shouts "THIS IS SPARTA!" and kicks the messenger

daily life of a Spartan. For instance, when an infant is born, it is determined if it is too weak or too sick to live. If the infant is, it will be killed. Spartan is centralized around its military so much that they are willing to sacrifice newborns to make their country stronger. Another example is that at a very young age, Spartan males are forced to enter into a training which prepares them to become a soldier dedicated to Sparta. A soldier is the chosen job for many Spartan males, which proves

Thermopylae’s and how king Leonidas and his 300 Spartans defeated thousands of Persian soldiers. At child birth you were either deemed fit or unfit to be called a spartan. If the baby were deemed unfit, the baby would be left out to die. At the age of 7 you would leave your family start your training as a young soldier. This was all portrayed in the movie however, how king Leonidas became king is false. The story of king Leonidas and the 300 Spartans is one of my favorite battles in History because

probably have seen the movie that this clip is from, 300. If not, though, it is about the Spartans famous stand against the Persian army with 300 Spartan soldiers. They held this position in a narrow pass for three days. The Persian army was estimated to have as many as 100,000 soldiers.

The boy was trained for

the manner in which the locations, characters and weapons had a "faded" and historic feel to them. It was as if I was really looking back into the past and viewing all the events that lead up to the great battle where Leonidas and his army of 300 Spartan warriors lost their lives. There was a definite emphasis on masculinity within the film where the various warriors were shown in nothing more than leather briefs while holding weapons that were made of bronze. This of course contrasts

The movie 300 came out in 2006 and was directed by Zack Snyder. It describes the event of King Leonidas and his Spartan soldiers’ fighting against the powerful Persian army at Thermopylae.
