Originally in Ancient Greece, citizens (White Males) in Athens who were 18 or older were the first who had the right to vote.
Voting was created in ancient Athens, Greece, but only certain upper class men were allowed to. They would write their vote on a piece of paper, put the paper in a box, and then afterwards would read the answers. They had a government that was "free", and we have a government that is "representative." In a free government, everyone votes for themselves. In a representative government, people vote on a certain person to "represent" them, and then that certain person would vote on certain laws. So like we vote for a president, and he makes the laws. In Athens, they would all vote on the laws themselves.
In Athens in the fifth century, B.C., laws were determined by a vote among all male citizens. This was an example of pure democracy.

ancient athens
no they were republicans!! Because there was a lot of things that they where not for in the democratic area!!!! i think Ancient Athens were Democratic. The word "democrat" derives from the Greek Demos (people) and Kratos (power). As seen in American history, Athen's as well had rules on who can vote. Women, alien residents, children and slaves were not allowed to vote.
