About the time in Sparta
Sparta sits at latitude 35.93, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 16m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Around 4,925 people live in Sparta, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Sunrise today lands at 06:06 and sunset at 07:22 local time, giving 13h 16m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (35.93, -85.47) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sparta.
