Sparta was a military state while Athens was a democracy.  Athenian women were forced to stay indoors all the time and were controlled by men, whereas Spartan women led a much freer existence.\n\nThese links should do it for you.  Good luck with it.

My husband and I got married in Greece last September.  It was amazing and surprisingly much cheaper than getting married in the US.  I highly recommend it.  There are websites that can help you.

Social and cultural differences.  In third world countires there is a larger sense of community ovver the way people in the US react.  In the US there is a "crab mentality" and the cliche of "keeping up with the Jones's".\n\nPeople in poor nations tend to stick closer together and be more dependendt on each other so when a disasters strieks you can see it.  In New Orleans the US lifestyle of independence comes out.

From the perspective of people in the US, only we are Americans,  but if you go to Spain, and some other parts of the world South America is America, and they are considered Americans. So: it depends on who you talk to.  \nI generally say I'm from the US: it seems a little colonial to usurp legit claims from everyone else in two continents.

The US is nothing like the USSR of yesterday.  The fact that you can openly complain about our government shows the difference.  Sure we have our problems here but, Americans really have it good.

You cannot compare the education in both the countries in any case. They have different standards and different extents to which they carry out research. USA has good research facilities and good mix of people whereas UK is more theoretical kinda stuff.(to the extent I know and people I have heard from). Rest is upto you.

The differences are as wide as chasms. The United States is a democracy that unilateraly invaded a repressive tyrrany. Nazi Germany, a repressive fascist state, invaded democracies across Europe, until they faced the full might of another repressive regime in the guise of the Soviet Union. The leaders of the respective countries also attained power very differently. Dubya Bush won the presidency through manipulation of voting system and media, especially in regards to the Florida controversy. He is perhaps one of the few presidents that has won without a popular mandate. Only 9/11 enabled Dubya to win a second term, as a society prefers familiarity over reality. Adolf Hitler, meanwhile, combined brutal thuggish tactics and playing the fears of industrialists and the middle classes against Communism, as well as the hardships of the Great Depression, to win the Chancellary. \nIn the end, the whole corrupt and debased character and structure of the Nazi regime proved a factor in its eventual downfall. The United States, currently a unilateralist, still maintains its strong democratic traditions, enabling the citizenry to practice their rights. Dubya Bush did abused the democratic system, and pulled the wool over everyones hat in the world. However, there are still enough checks and balances for Dubya to be remained in check. And most of all, the most starking difference between the United States invasion of Iraq, and Nazi Germany's rollup of France, was that the former would actually hand back power to the Iraqis, albeit will be heavily influenced for the next decade or so. Nazi Germany did not, and the Vichy monnicker of a state was blatantly nothing but an autonomous puppet state within greater Nazi Germany.

I see many similarities between Ancient Rome and America today. Both expanded their holdings using War, and then assimilated the populations into their own, whether they want to be or not. Both rule absolutely depend-less on how their peoples feel, and America shall go down in the hands of "Barbarians" just as Rome did. Everything that is big becomes small. that is Nature.

Americans actually comes from Europe because of the immigrants thing, so there are actually brothers. The different is that Americas rule the politic and economic world not the Europe

Time to reread the chapters in your text that cover this item.  You may have to get in touch with the Greek community to get specifics but I guess from the question that you are in Canada and will recognize the differences once you know about Greece.\n\nI apologize if it's the other way around.

Greece is a country by itself.
