it is a very interesting and obvious case of a system that was doomed to collapse in on itself over time. though, I've seen so many chuds over the years claim that women inheriting was one of the key downfalls of Sparta lmao. Spartan women were quite independent and many of them did accumulate vast estates, but their political system was just so top heavy that is was bound to have that demographic collapse regardless of if a man or a woman had that massive estate
