This might be a history misconception I'm spreading, but what if it is like Sparta, where there was a huge slave population upholding that martial society?

I don't think that's a misconception, this exhaustive series from a real historian makes just that point

Honestly, with a conquest driven society, wouldn’t surprise me. Human history is full of examples, even today.
