Government

What type of government did Athens have?

• The Council of Five Hundred was made up of 500
  men, 50 men from each of the 10 tribes. Any
  citizen over the age of 30 was qualified to be a
  member. Each tribe chose the men by lot, or at
  random, to serve for a term of one year. Members
  could be reelected only once. The yearly
  turnover allowed for a greater number of Athenian
  citizens to participate in their government at a
  high level. Laws were passed by a majority vote
  in the assembly.

Athenian Government

• The first direct democracy was developed in
  Athens.
• Citizens worked together to make laws and
  policies. Women and slaves were not considered
  citizens, so they did not have the right to vote.

What type of government did Sparta have?

• The city-state Sparta in Ancient Greece had a 30
  member senate. It also had an assembly in which
  all males could be members. However, the actual
  rulers were a group of five landowners known as
  the ephorate. Two kings ruled above the
  ephorate, but the ephors could fire the kings if
  they were not living up to their promises.

Spartan Government

• Sparta was first ruled by an oligarchy mixed with
  a democracy.
