You had to complete a military service and be over 18
And not be a slave
Sounds like good criteria
A very good one
Male citizen
Complete military service for your nation
Be over 18
The Council was called "Εκκλησία του Δήμου" or "Council of the People" for your info.
Modern Democracy is very different
That type of democracy would be called autocracy nowadays
By libs
True
They also had sortition, which is very overlooked and underrated
imo
That's a good system
If they had it
*they did*
We're they actually chosen at random
Damn ok
History never taught me that
Well, since I'm half greek I know more things about Democracy and greek shit
Well I mean it's not a bad system considering the criteria
And also, they were all disciplined
However, females had no rights at all
They couldn't even watch the Olympics
wouldn't democracies want the leaders ot be decided by the entire nation?
not just
men that servedin the armed forces
That's mob rule
I mean it looks like it
That's gay
Greek Democracy was based
many nations would rather stride for a majority representation rather than having a minority decide who leads for the next few years
Would rather
Dosen't mean it's best
We we're just talking about Greek democracy
doesn't it seem a bit
dangerous though?
It's dangerous to have everyone vote
what if someone bad wanted to be incharge, he'd only need to appeal to 1 demogrpahic
I don't think you read anything we said
