Learn more about the Spartans, the military force of Sparta, one of the leading city-states of ancient Greece. They had a saying: "come back with the shield or on top of it" which means don't come back unless you are victorious. They were some of the toughest soldiers the world had ever seen and have become infamous for their last stand at the battle of Thermopylae. They were masters of the shield and spear combination that was later copied by many others. Read more about their background, battles, and more.
