In at least 300 words, answer the following question:

Focusing on the course themes of government and either social class or gender roles, identify and explain the major similarities or differences between ancient Athens and Sparta.

Suggestion for formulating a clear answer: Instead of describing Athens and Sparta separately, you should compare Athens and Sparta in terms of the course themes in order to identify and explain the major similarities or differences between ancient Athens and Sparta. You should first compare their governments to what explain were the major similarities and differences, and then you should do the same for social class and/or gender roles.
