What did the early government of the US have in common with ancient governments?

Nothing. We are talking about different historical periods, different societies and different institutions. In the ancient days there were kings and emperors, which the US do not have. When there was democracy, it was different. It was direct democracy, whereas the US and other modern democracies use indirect democracy. Direct democracy means that instead of electing representatives to vote on laws, people voted on bills themselves (directly) by gathering in popular assemblies to vote.

What is the difference between. Direct democracy and represenative democracy?

Direct Democracy is when the people directly rule their country. That is, all the people get together and discuss the issues and collectively decide what to do. Because everyone needs to be able to get together to do this, direct democracy tends to only really work in very small countries.Examples are some of the ancient Greek City-States, like Athens; or the early colonies in New England. Even a small town where the people gather to decide the town's policies could be considered a form of direct democracy.Representative democracy is when the people of a country choose people to run the country for them. There is usually some sort of process, typically an election, where the people in an area will choose someone to represent them; then all these representatives will meet somewhere and run things. This system works better than direct democracy for larger countries.Examples include most modern countries like the United States, Germany, and France.
