Resident alien in ancient Greece without citizen rights?
Only male citizens of a city-state had rights. Women, children, non-citizens, aliens and slaves had no rights. Resident aliens (Metics) did have privileges according to beneficial contributions they made to the city. But these were not rights. Metics were expected to turn out in defence of the city when necessary as a quid pro quo for those privileges. Athens eg had a separate regiment of metics who were expected to fight very well to demonstrate their appreciation.
