First off Australians don't own slaves because the Government put the human rights law into action. Women can vote, are citizens and are higher valued today than they were back in Ancient Greece times. All Citizens over the age of 18 are allowed to vote (unless they have been in jail for 5 or more years).

Australia has a head of state (The Queen) also Australia has Political Parties (e.g. Labour) as in Athens it was just one Independent Politic running the Country/City-State. Another big difference is that Foreigners can immigrate to become a citizen.

So obviously there is quiet a difference between Australia's Government and Athens Government.

one democracy was in Australia, and the other was in Greece. they where both very different, like girls were allowed to get married at the age of 14, but in Australia at 18 (still today). there aren't that many differences between the two though. You just have to look around on lots of different websites.

Ancient athenian democracy wasn't as developed and only some people could vote. Women couldn't vote, neither could slaves. Also their voting wasn't secret so there was often fights over who voted for who. where as in Australia we have secretive voting.

How is the Australian government different from the Athenian government?

Athenian democracy was effected by the citizens (males 18 and over) meeting each fortnight in assembly and making decisions which the Council implemented between meetings. Australian democracy is representative democracy, where the citizens (males and females 18 and over) elect representatives to a parliament for three years. These representatives (members of parliament) do what they feel like, not necessarily according to what they promised when they were seeking election.
