What are good points of living in ancient Athens?

Answer 1

I think that Athens would be a best place to live in ancient Greece because of their government. It allows the citizens to make decisions. In Athens the government is a democracy. They had one leader also they had a council of 500 people that help make decisions. I think because there government is a democracy that is controlled by the people the things that the citizens want to happen would happen and that would benefit for everyone. They had three branches of government legislative, executive and judicial just like us now and that seems to work really well. A other reason I would like to live in Athens is the education for boys. In Athens boys get to learn to read, write, play music, write poetry and to speak publicly. They also had military training for fitness. A other reason I would like to live there instead of Sparta is because they had extensive trade and Sparta had very little to no trade.
