Based on the information provided about the government systems of Sparta and Carthage, the following statements accurately compare the two:

1. **The Spartan government had hereditary kings while the Carthaginian government had elected leaders.** - This statement is accurate as Sparta had two hereditary kings and Carthage had elected leaders called judges (suffetes).

2. **The Spartan and Carthaginian governments both used a council. The Spartan senate used 500 elected officials while the council of Carthage had 28 elected officials.** - This statement is not accurate. Sparta had a council known as the Gerousia, which consisted of around 28 elders (not 500) plus the two kings.

3. **The Spartan and Carthaginian governments both had an assembly. The Spartan government elected citizens in the assembly while the Carthaginian government did not.** - This statement is misleading. Both governments had assemblies, but the nature and function were different. The Spartan assembly (Apella) allowed male citizens to vote on certain matters, whereas the Carthaginian assembly had more limited participatory rights compared to the Spartan assembly.

4. **The Spartan and Carthaginian governments were both oligarchies. Carthage focused more on military matters and Sparta focused more on democracy.** - This statement is inaccurate. While both cities had aspects of oligarchy, Sparta is often typified by its militaristic focus, whereas Carthage had a more merchant and trade-based economy and political structure.

From the options above, the accurate options are primarily centered around the uniqueness of their leadership structures (hereditary kings versus elected leaders), but care must be taken in the interpretation of the roles of their councils and assemblies.
