basically, the Romans did not let everyone participate in the government i.e. voting and such. they operated like our congress/senate; the people elected people to represent them in the government the athenians let people vote on matters rather than have just representatives vote for them.
The council of 500, the assembly, and the courts. They did not have the senate! Source was Wikipedia :)
Pericles changed the Athenian society by proposing a new type of government to take effect. He wanted to start a democracy where all male Athenians could be involved with governmental decisions.
The first democracy was a limited democracy introduced by Cleisthenes in 507 BCE after expulsion of the tyrant. Voting was limited to landowners. This democracy was replaced by an oligarchy to lead during the Persian War. A broader democracy of citizens was reintroduced byEphialtes in 461 BCE. He was assassinated and his deputy Pericles introduced radical democracy of all Athenian adult males in 444 BCE after expelling the competing landowner party in the assembly.
