Best Answer

The assembly meetings held every couple of weeks consisted of the adult male citizens who met and had matters put before them by the council.

They discussed and argued the merits and demerits, and made decision by vote. leading orators tried to influence the assembly, and often succeeded for better of worse.

After a few bad experiences, to try to discourage them from biased or self-interested reasons, the Assembly passed a law that established the death sentence for 'misleading the people'.

The council carried out the Assembly's decisions.
