Early Classical Greece From Colonization to the Persian Wars BCE

Government in Ancient Greece Draco Solon The Persian Threat Background of the Persian War

Government in Ancient Greece City-States emerged, ruled by kings (inherited or elected) Kings not seen as gods but rather as part of the people Over time Athens and other city states moved towards an early form of democracy

Draco Athenian lawgiver Wrote down a harsh written law code in 621 BCE, most crimes punishable by death Laws applied to all citizens Laws still favoured middle and upper class but protected lower classes

Solon 594 BCE – 559 BCE Ruled Athens: freed many farmers forced into slavery Reformed the harsh laws of Draco Allowed any wealthy male to hold office (not just aristocrats) Enlarged council so more citizens made laws

The Persian Threat Greatest empire the world had seen to that point (10 million) At peak under Darius I in 522 BCE Stretched from modern day India to the Mediterranean Viewed Greek city stated as barbarians

Background of the Persian War Persian Empire desired more naval bases and trade Revenge desired by Persians against Greeks: Ionian states,with the help of Greece, had revolted and won against Persia Greek city states an easy target, lacked unity
