A question about general Spartan military

[hoplite14gr]

Well in the Greek Military Tradition the free man was liable for service.
In the Bronze age the enlisted men were, arround 1200 B.C. equiped by the state. After the palace societies colapsed, troops were self equiped but to maintain armies it was necessary to go fighting if you wanted civil rights.
Spartans were like everybody else in the Early Archaic Era, even colonised Taras and Thourioo and sent people to live in Gortyna Crete.
True they transformed to a military state after the Messenian Wars.
Their lost their social bet when Kleomenes-Pausanias failed tragically in their attempts for social reforms (The real reason for their execution!)
Sparta failed to adapt in changing times amd only under the much vilified Navis just before the Roman occupation solved their social problem.
Too little too late. History is unforgiving for those who fail to act in time.
Kind regards
