As opposed to the Greeks, Parthians, Ptolemaic Egypt and Judea? Unless you mean "fully dependent on slave labour" - then I guess we can mention Sparta and Athens.

What does "little" mean in this context? This is a very fuzzy concept but this doesn't sound right.

Sparta is known for little other than their military prowess, which was a necessity for managing their much larger slave population.

Athens had a rather strange system of slavery. The majority of slaves, owned by State, earned wages and worked and lived unattended. It was much more similar to indentured-servitude.

My point was that Sparta was far more dependent on slave labour for its existence than either Rome or Athens.
