No - Athens was fighting for its empire. It had formed this empire from its allies for its own benefit. Athens then tried to dominate other Greek cities, which brought it into conflict with the Peloponnesian League led by Sparta. The ensuing war had nothing to do with democracy, it was about Athens' desire to rule 180 other cities as an empire - no democracy there.

Why is slavery important to ancient Greeks'?

it was important to ancient Greeks because slaves did most of their work -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Sparta, Slaves known as Helots (which accounted for appx. 90% of the population) maintained the state while the Spartans would train for war. Also, the Helots served as a source of fear to motivate the Spartans to train so that the slaves would not rebel. An interesting side note, about once every year, the Spartans would massacre Helots to remind them of their place.
