It was not - it was direct democracy where the citizens met in fortnightly assembly and decided on issues which the council implemented. Modern democracy is representative democracy, where elected representatives carry out the functions of governance.
they are similar because democracy and oligarchy have some sort of laws
They both partook in orgies.
they had a democracy or similar
It's not
The Greek concept of democracy intended to give power to the elite, the "citizens." Only they could vote on proposals to become law. But, it wasn't democracy because, since most Greeks were slaves, its laws were not dictated by the majority of its people. America's so-called democracy is set up almost exactly the same, except that the powerful government officials continuously and falsely try to convince the people that it is a democracy, simply because they have the right to vote for those the elite groups offer as political candidates.
Monarchy- a form of government in which the people are led by one ruler, usually a king, who takes power legally and often hands the throne down to his son. Oligarchy- a form of government in which the people are led by a small group of people, often wealthy aristocrats. This isn't usually very beneficial to the majority of the population. Tyranny- a form of government very similar to monarchy, except a tyrant doesn't take power legally and can claim no right to the throne. A tyrant usually doesn't pass power to his son, and despite common stereotypes, not all tyrants were bad leaders. Democracy- a form of government led by the people, either through representatives or directly. Democracy in ancient Athens was a direct democracy, in the USA today we have a representative democracy.
According to the Democracy Index, it's in the limbo between being a democracy and a dictatorship (similar to Russia).

Theirs diffrent ways to put it in (like in a order)
