Weirdly enough, Nashville, TN has a full scale replica of the Parthenon. For whatever reason, something something old white dude with lots of disposable income.

It was actually originally erected temporarily as part of the 1897 Centennial exhibition, and people loved it so much the city invested in making it permanent! The only white guys involved were the city gov't.

I mean I grew up near Sparta, WI and afaict other than the high school sports mascot just being "The Spartans," they have absolutely zero Sparta-themed stuff

The Spartans were, in fact, the worst Mediterranean culture of Antiquity. The Spartans were worse than: - The Athenians - The Thebians - The Persians - The Romans - The fucking Carthaginians
