1. What makes Athens great is the fact that they have a strong army that fights in portions, yet they still win. Also, they are well educated at an early age and don't exclude anyone from Athens.
2. Athens fighting / army style is different compared to other city-states. Sparta fights with not only their entire army, but with their allies. Athens on the other hand only fights with part of their army.
3. Their are some things wrong with Pericles' description of Athens. He describes a man who minds his own business as "good for nothing." Everyone is good for something, even if it doesn't have something to do with you personally.
