Best Answer

The ancient Greeks, in the city of Athens, did invent the idea of democracy. They did not make the whole world democratic, however, they just made their own city democratic. It was up to the rest of the world to make their own political choices. There are still a lot of nations in the world that do not have democratic forms of government, which includes the world's most populous country, China.
