Only rich men could vote for their leader! Democracy, actualy, began in Athins in 510 BCE, after spread to many other city-states and across the sea. Democracy changed people's lives a lot - they began reading more than before to understand which leader would be the best to vote for him, they also had to spent some time to actualy vote - make that also count! Children, women, slaves and poor people couldn't vote at all! Rich Greek citizens men could vote - nobody else!
Democracy, as a word, was invented and first said by democracy's enimies, so they thought of it as a bad thing, not like we think about it nowadays. Democracy means "People-power".
People had to only say "yes" or "no" for the leader and many aristicrats didn't like it that much, because before, only children of the leader could become the next leader and so on! Now, it really changed Greek's lives and affected their country!
Do not forget that democracy also spread all over the world and many countries (almost all of them) use this thing, called democracy which was invented by whom? Greeks!
