Pericles did a lot of good for Athenians. He had the power of a tyrant, but he used it for the welfare of the people. He also made some new and better laws. One was that anybody who fought in the Athenian army should be paid for doing so. Some of today's American laws are said to be adapted from Pericles's ideas. --DanW12321
