Did You Know? (History)
The ancient Greeks used democracy in Athens, though participation was limited.
The ancient Greeks, particularly in the city-state of Athens, developed an early form of democracy in which citizens could participate directly in political decision-making, though this participation was limited primarily to free adult male citizens, excluding women, slaves, and foreigners. Despite these significant limitations by modern standards, Athenian democracy is often cited as an important early influence on the later development of democratic political systems around the world. Key democratic institutions, such as public assemblies and jury systems, first took shape in this context.
