Greece was comprised of hundreds of independent city-states. Each had their own rulers. They started with petty kings, but this evolved to ruling aristocracies - the major landowners. This then developed into all the landowners (most of whom were not at all rich) who elected leaders, and then an experiment with all adult male citizens in direct democracies where the council executed their decisions made in assembly.
