Sparta, meaning “to sow”, is an ideal area to establish a new civilization, a vast audience, taught how to fight, overcome hardships, and above all, to survive. This is Sparta. I am Sparta, a one-armed one-man army, with a 300-strong heart, a fertile warrior shaping the legendary city-state defining my ruthless one-of-a-kind culture, fierce fight. I live to conquer till my very last breath. The most iconic army that leaves its mark not only in history, but in the present and future.
If I can kneel before God, which I do, I can stand before any man and lie with any woman of my liking if she desires so. Kneeling is valuable as an outward sign of an inward condition: humility, supplication, gratitude. The most important thing is not the position of the body but the condition of the soul. If the heart is attuned to God, one can pray in any posture imaginable.
“O come, let us worship and bow down: Let us kneel before the LORD our maker. For he is our God; And we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.”
Psalm 95:6-7
You bring the crowns and heads of conquered kings to my city steps. You insult my queen. You threaten my people with slavery and death! Oh, I have chosen my words carefully, Persian!
Our lifestyle is simple, minimalistic, and frugal. We have no taste for luxury or designs for empire, so we do not have to constantly find new sources of treasure to fund our civilization. We have the courage of contentment = the ability to say “enough!” Enough!
The Spartan hoplite follows a strict laconic code of honor. No soldier is considered superior to another using a strategic formation known as the phalanx, in which we create an unbreakable defense by moving together and working with each other.
Made emblematic of rational Western democracy fighting a desperate battle for survival against Oriental religious fundamentalism and tyranny, I am a macho-man of action and truth while the Persians are effete deceivers corrupted by both materialism and mysticism. The Persians oppress their women, while I Spartan honor mine.
I do not invade, I fight fiercely for homeland, democracy, and honor. The Persians fight for money. The Persians are degenerates, but they are unified. Their god-king Xerxes sashays around like a giant and rules through bribery and whips. The 300 in me are morally unclouded, but have to deal with treachery, cowardice, and moral turpitude among my own priests, politicians, and allies.
Descended from Hercules himself, I am a bold white Greek, giving testament to the bloodline. My roar is long, my roar is loud. Taught never to retreat, never to surrender. Taught that death on the battlefield in service to Sparta is the greatest glory I can achieve in my life. We Spartans are rightly renowned for our bravery on the battlefield, our courage is perhaps even more keenly demonstrated at home. We understand that victory is won not in the heat of battle, but in all the small tasks and practices that lead up to it. What is needed is not only courage for special times of crisis, but the everyday courage of discipline.
My enemies are monstrous mutations, heavily deformed and rendered gigantic or hideous by inbreeding. The Persians' multicultural ethnicities vary from beige to black, including more modern stereotypes of Arab horsemen, African assegai-hurlers, and even katana-wielding Japanese samurai. The Spartans in me are uniformly perfect specimens of an idealized manhood. Well, abusing steroids, just a little bit, look at the bodies. And there is no wonder about how I achieve this racial perfection. A new age has begun, an age of freedom. And all will know that 300 Spartans gave their last breath to defend it.
Freedom is not free at all, it comes with the highest of costs, the cost of blood. This day we rescue a world from mysticism and tyranny and usher in a future brighter than anything we can imagine. It is an honor to die at your side, it is an honor to have lived at yours, search your soul! Spartans never retreat! Spartans never surrender! That is Spartan law! Persian, kneeling will be hard for me. The world will know that free men stood against a tyrant, that few stood against many, and before this battle was over, even a god-king can bleed.
There is no room for softness ... not in Sparta. No place for weakness. Only the hard and strong may call themselves Spartans. Only the hard, only the strong. The best of the best survive.
There will be glory in my sacrifice. Nobody will erase even the memory of Sparta from the histories! No piece of Greek parchment shall be burned. No Greek historian and scribe shall have their eyes pulled out, nor their tongues cut from their mouths. Why, not uttering the very name of Sparta, or Leonidas, its king, will be punishable by death! The whole world will always know I existed!
I do not care if a thousand nations of the Persian empire will descend upon me. I do not care if their arrows blot out the sun or blank out me! I will fight in the shade. I feel no fear to make spear and shield and sword as much a part of me as my own beating heart! My actions speak louder than my words ever could.
This is where we fight! This is where they die! HA-OOH! HA-OOH! HA-OOH!
No retreat, no surrender, no prisoners, no mercy! And by Spartan law we will stand and fight ... and die falling on this mountain of dead Persians, laconically sharing our culture with theirs all morning. A new age has begun. An age of freedom, and all will know, that 300 Spartans gave their last breath to defend it! For Sparta, for freedom, to the death!
TO VICTORY!
Bleeding for our rights, and for the very principles this city-state was built upon, my last home words are to the traitor on the battlefield before I am engulfed by a shower of arrows: "I hope you live forever." Yes, this is the most profound Spartan insult, incorporating my disgust for the foreigner with the Spartan ideal of dying a "beautiful death" in battle.
I am Sparta. Sparta is the premier city-state of ancient Greece every time traveler should choose to visit, subscribe to Greece!

I take it there weren't a whole lot of ruins and ancient, photogenic stuff to see in modern Sparta. :) In any case I'd long forgotten about 300: it was big back then, but can it really be called a classic today? I guess we'll find out when Hollywood creates the 300 franchise once they've squeezed the juice out of every other meaningful Hollywood story.
