Stuart Frazier this article is terrible - not only do you use words such as "comprehend" where you mean to use "include" or "comprise" - your use of the word destination is also misplaced in this context - you mean location - destination is fine - but not in this context ----but the historical inaccuracies are abound
1) It was not one of the most important sites in Europe - Europe had barely begun to develop at this point and there was little connection between it and Greece (i could go further)

2) Sparta was not known for its naval force. Sparta was primarily a land army state - its naval interests came of age in the Persian wars when they led the allied naval forces - the command should however have gone to Athens. Sparta proved herself to be a fast learner and with Persian finance in the Peloponnesian war - constructed a naval force

3) "although they became enemies after a while as well" --- a bit of an understatement wouldn't you say

4) The issues with your Kingship and Government would take too long to discuss

5) Sparta was not seen as a military power - but came to be feared as a military masterpeice. The training Spartans went through was not aimed soley at war but a sigle lifestyle dedicated to the state and nothing else. There is no evidence - certainly none credible - that has seen Spartans "request another job" so to speak.
People do not expect much from internet information - but this is just shoddy
