The POLIS (city-state) consisted of a city and its surrounding plains and valleys. The nucleus of the polis was the elevated, fortified site called the ACROPOLIS where people could take refuge from attack. With the revival of commerce, a TRADING CENTER developed below the acropolis.

Four major TYPES OF GOVERNMENT evolved in ancient Greece:

Monarchy (rule of a king) limited by an aristocratic council and a popular assembly.

Oligarchy (rule of the few) arising when the aristocratic council ousted the king and abolished the assembly.

Tyranny (rule by one who ruled without legal authority) riding to power on the discontent of the lower classes.

Democracy (rule of the people), the outstanding political achievement of the Greeks.

He was born in 570 BC and died in 507

and was an Athenian noble.

“the father of the Athenian democracy.”

Cleisthenes: "The Father of Democracy"

Page 12: Hungary   Greece  Bulgaria   Estonia   Latvia Italy  Romania  Germany               COMENIUS

Cleisthenes broke up the power of noble families,

divided Athens into 10 tribes based on where its citizens

lived.

He made tribes, not families, social groups and he put

up the basis for elections.He introduced ‘’SISACTHEIA’’

which means that he legislated for the poor citizens of

Athens not to pay for their debts so as not to lose their

freedom, and their rights

The People

Pericles understood that the value of human

existence rested in the citizens’ ability and

determination.

He believed that anyone who did not have an

interest in politics or the affairs of the state

had no position in the state at all .

Page 15: Hungary   Greece  Bulgaria   Estonia   Latvia Italy  Romania  Germany               COMENIUS

Pericles believed that the people should be equally

represented at all levels .

He worked to ensure that every Athenian had land and

some link to their state and its government.

He believed that any man could benefit his country, no

matter the obscurity of his condition (in life).

‘’Our political system is called a democracy because

power is in the hands not of a minority but of all the

citizens’’.

Parthenon) among others, were built during his time. This jewel of

‘’The Golden Age of Pericles’’ built in honor of Athena, patroness of

Athens, is considered by experts to be the most perfect building ever

created by man.

During the Golden Age there existed peace between

Athens and Sparta, something that showed the power and glory of the city of Athens. When the Peloponnesian war started, the city began to lose its power and wealth, because the Athenians surrendered and the Spartans gained the prestige they fought for.
