Government


 * Greek Government: ** The Greek empire was divided into city states,similar how the U.S is divided into several states.Each state had their own little government,which ruled the state.Very often there were fights between the different city states,as each one thought there's was the best and most powerful.In the beginning the city states were ruled by a few wealthy men,but then all had the same way of ruling,which was democracy! The Greek society was divided into three different groups,upper class, middle class and lower class!Only people from upper class were allowed to vote and become part of making laws.They did this at public assemblies,were they would discuss the problems,and tried to come up with solutions.
