Detailed explanation-1: -Spartan political independence was put to an end when it was eventually forced into the Achaean League after its defeat in the decisive Laconian War by a coalition of other Greek city-states and Rome, and the resultant overthrow of its final king Nabis, in 192 BC.
Detailed explanation-2: -Boys were encouraged to steal food. If they were caught, they were punished, not for stealing, but for getting caught.
