    I know that doesn't make any sense, but I think the thought though is that the makedonians are still technically greeks so you can send your kids to be trained in the agoge.

    I'm pretty sure ownership of Sparta is the only requirement, aside from being a Hellenic faction.

    yeah, i realise you can send them to the agoge, but i took it over maybe 20 years ago in the game and have sent many a young makedonian general there, what i want to know is if i destroy the koinon hellenon type governemtn that was there when i invaded and put in a makedonian government will i still be able to send family members to the agoge

    Oh ya. I did that when I took Sparte and installed a type one gov. The type of gov doesn't affect the agoge system at all.

    In my campaigns as Makedonia, I simply conquer Sparte and install a lvl 4 government type. When you have a young general (16yo) that can take part in the Agoge, you will be informed of it.

    So yes, you can (actually have) to destroy the existing government system in Sparte.

    The KH "Type1 : Agoge" government has no connection to the script/traits concerning generals being educated at the agoge in sparta. As always, destroy all enemy governments when you take a town. The two things named "Agoge" in EB, have not gameplay connection.
