The two most important Greek city-states were Athens and Sparta. One was a Direct Democracy (Athens), while the other was an Oligarchy(Sparta). Democracy Athens was the world’s first DEMOCRACY Athens was a Direct Democracy in which male citizens had power and could vote on any issue. vs. Athens’ government was extremely different than the U.S. in one way: Athens had a Direct Democracy which meant voters voted on ALL issues. The United States has a Representative Democracy, which means we elect people(ex. senators) to run the government and pass laws. The Spartan Way Spartan life was completely based on military power. Children were raised solely to become good soldiers. Women had more rights in Sparta than in Athens. They were encouraged to play sports and maintain good physical fitness. Sparta was an oligarchy, where a small group had ruling power.
