Athens “The Birth of Democracy” By Mr. Fitzpatrick Monarchy Oligarchy Democracy Oligarchy Democracy Power lies directly in the hands of the people Power is given to a representative group of People (Senate/Congress)

This is ATHENS 1.Limited amount of land a person could own 2.All landowners could now vote 3.Only the ASSEMBLY could make laws 4.All debts were erased, start from scratch 5.People in slavery from debt were freed 6.Artisans and craftsmen could become citizens 7.All sons had to be taught a trade by their fathers Reforms of Solon Encyclopedia Article

This is ATHENS Reforms of Peisitratus He was a tyrant who got power from the help of the poorer citizens Divided large estates and gave them to farmers who owned no land Gave citizenship to all, even if you didn’t own land Encouraged sculpture and other arts to entertain people

1.First, Solon tries to change the Government. 2.Cleisthenes is a young rich boy, growing up under aristocratic rule. 3.Peisistratus walks into Athens with a tall woman, claiming she is the goddess Athena. They take over power. He is a tyrant, but being a tyrant is not a bad thing. The people like him. Greece becomes an economic power, trading olive oil all over the Mediterranean Sea. 4.When Peisistratus dies, his son Hipias takes over. 5.He is good at first, but when his brother is murdered, he becomes pretty ruthless. 6.The people no longer like him. 7.Cleisthenes is now a grown man. He overthrows Hipias, and kicks him out of Athens. He goes to Persia, angry at the Athenians. 8.Pysagorus wants to take control from Cleisthenes, so he goes to the Spartans for help. They agree, and send a force to Athens. 9.Cleisthenes, and over 700 other aristocrats are made to leave Athens. 10.The common Athenians REVOLT against Pysagorus. They climb the Acropolis, and make him surrender. 11.WHAT NOW???? 12. They go get Cleisthenes back, and he creates the Common Vote of the people, creating a Democracy. 13. He puts Athens on the path to greatness, but does not take them there himself. 14. Pericles. The Story of Athens Early Government The Anthenians The Anthenians

Reforms of Cleisthenes This is ATHENS 1.Opened the ASSEMBLY to all males over 20 2.Gave freedom of speech 3.Council of 500 had term limit of 2 years so everyone could have a turn 4. At 7 boys had to start schooling= reading, writing, math, and musicschooling 5.Citizenship was granted at 18 if promise to: 1) make Athens a better place 2) be honorable in battle 3) follow the constitution 4) respect the gods and religion

Review  Began as a Monarchy – a King or Queen  Led to Oligarchy – a few people have the ruling power  Possible Uprising – Things Must Change. Unlike Sparta, they did not have the strength to put down a revolt.  Solon – developed the first constitution, limited amount of land ownership per person, freed slaves of debt, offered artisans citizenship along with all landowners.  Peisistratus – gave non-landowners land, no longer had to own land to vote, encouraged sculpture and other arts. Tyrant, who was supported by the Poor.  Cleisthenes – First Democratic Constitution, the democratic assembly.
