why is it that i have the highest mic on both of them as KH but Ambrakia has ever single unit as sparta (except Spartan hoplites of corse) + a bunch more units?
Some areas give up more units than others. Sparta has relatively few compared to some other regions, whilst Ambrakia, I imagine, has quite a few.

It has good units, just not a very big selection, as they were rarther inflexible and reluctant to use new ideas, so they are stuck with classical units, no iphractious hoplites or any of the more modern units.

Sparta wasn't known for heavy cavalry or cretan archers or ekdromoi hoplites or other such units. They have some simpler units and the spartans themselves.

Did you have the highest factional or regional MIC? What faction are you playing as? Some factions (KH, Makedonia, if I remember correctly) can build it in their factionals on that island with province-type government, but some either need a allied-type government and high regional MICs.

First, let's cut the homophobic language.
Second, Spartan hoplites are what Sparta was known for in the 5th and early 4th centuries, not the 3rd. It took a lot of time and resources to recreate the spartan system of old in any form.
