We are aligned with both Athens and Sparta. Our government, which is a Monocracy, is a combination of a monarchy and a democracy. In Athens, their government was set up like a democracy and people had a say in government, but in Sparta, they had a monarchy and the people had no say in government. However, we have a strong army like Spartans did, but Athens also was much more open to trade and was based off of trade. Sparta was closed off when it came to trade. Even though we are similar to both Athens and Sparta, Hermeter is more aligned to Sparta, mainly because we have a strong army and have half of the same government because our war element is more important to us than our intellectual pursuits.
