There were actually lots of differences. 1.) Sparta was a Greek state founded on military prowess and valor, which it valued more than anything. Sparta had more rigid laws concerning military views (at a certain age young boys were forced to begin military training). 2.) Government: Sparta was governed by a council of 28 elders, while Athens was governed by an early form of democracy, which consisted of the eligible citizens debating and discussing various things at their assembly meeting.
