HELP INDEX NEXT UP PREVIOUS FEEDBACK ATG Greek Democracy
In 507BC, Democracy reared its head in Athens. This was a direct Democracy so that each eligible citizen had his own vote in all important decisions. The General Assembly would meet and men would vote. Free speech and equal rights among citizens were encouraged but women and slaves were not considered citizens. [JG] {SH} {OT}
