Sparta was ruled by an oligarchy, Athens by democracy Sparta had 2 kings, 5 ephors (overseers) a senate (if you were in it you were elected for life), and an assembly which voted on legislation (you had to be a man and over 30)

Athens had a council of 500, which was divided into ten groups of 50 and changed its elected president every day, a board of ten generals, a jury of 6000 selected by lot from the citizens, judicial board of nine archons, and an assembly
