My City-State
If I created my own city state it would be named Lointheus or in Greek λοιντηευσ. This city state would have the most powerful army out of all the other city-states and only when needed they would be ruthless to them, but its not always like that. They don't invade other peoples land and are kind to everyone. The army would protect the towns people and the king and queen. Their government is a Monarchy but they kings and queens would treat everyone very kindly and not be unfair. I think Monarchy is a little bit better than the other governments because people weren't always fair. The kings or Queens could only rule if they where kind, caring, and not greedy. Many other monarchs don't act like us but we make them do that. Many other governments might work but I feel like this is the best for my city-state.
Monarchy vs Democracy
Greek Democracy was a radical departure from Monarchy because they are two very different types of government. It was so radical because everyone was used to being ruled by one person and not getting a say in many things. They both have many things that are different like in Greek democracy they voted on every single problem that occurred and in Monarchy the king or queen makes the choices for the people. Also in a Monarchy the king or queen has much more power than someone in a democracy.
Athens Democracy
Got to this website to find out more information on Athens democracy http://greece.mrdonn.org/athensdemocracy.html . The creation of Athens democracy influenced our modern government because we have the same ideas as in people vote on a problem but ours is you vote on a representative who has the same feeling as you do about something and they vote on all the problems so you don't have to vote as much. The problem is the representative might not have all of the same ideas as you and might vote on something you hate.
