Sparta was such an interesting society. It was eerily similar to Rome’s government, but a few very important difference allowed Rome to become a modern (even socialist) nation state while causing Sparta to become a nothing burger, with their only continuous legacy being that Maniots claimed ancestry.

Part of it was them having a rigid system of eugenics for men but not for women so they had a massive gender imbalance as time went on. Plus some disastrous fails to Thebes. By Roman times people just went to Sparta to watch naked/scantily clad women do exercise and men do mock battle training.
