West Civ

Today in west civ, we talked about Sparta and Athens and how they were different. I learned about the dark ages and that nothing was happening in these times. I also learned about Sparta and how it was much more unsocial than Athens and how they didn't trade as much. They got into major wars and thought that they were the better one in Greece. Athens had trade partners in Egypt and Sparta didn't really trade. Greece also was the first to have there own Democratic government and let the people choose the rules. That is pretty cool knowing that it is an older government that has been perfected over the years.
