Ancient Greek democracy (12th-9th century B.C) (1 gen 12 anni a. C. – 1 gen 9 anni a. C.)

Descrizione:

In Greece in the year 507 B.C, The Athenian leader Cleisthenes introduced a new political system that he called demokratia. It was the first democracy in the world. This system had three bodys: the ekklesia, a sovereign governing body that wrote laws and managed foreign policy. There was also the boule, or a council of representatives from the ten athenian tribes and the dikasteria, a court for athenian citizens that would have a jury drawn from a lottery. The invention of Demokratia was directly responsible for our modern democracy and how our governmental system is organized and is also a direct contributor to classic liberalism and individual rights & freedoms.
