The boule was an advisory citizen body of the Athenian democracy. Members had to be over 30 and citizens could serve on it twice, which was more than other elected offices. There were either 400 or 500 members of the boule, who were selected by lot in equal number by each of the ten tribes. In Aristotle's Constitution of Athens, he attributes to Draco a boule of 401 members, but Solon is generally taken as the one who started the boule, with 400.
The members of the boule were chosen by lot instead of through an election to ensure fairness and prevent corruption. Random selection through a lottery system ensured that all eligible citizens had an equal chance of participating in the governing body, promoting democratic ideals. Additionally, this method helped mitigate the influence of wealth and social status in the selection process, allowing for a more representative and inclusive government.
In Ancient Greece, particularly Athens, the Boule (Council of 500) was an assembly of citizens that were selected to run the day to day affairs of the city-state. The members of the Boule were chosen by lot, and their terms lasted one year. The Boule of Athens was established by Solon in 594 B.C., with 400 members. It was expanded to 500 members, 50 men from each of the ten tribes of Athens, by Kleisthenes in 508 B.C.The Boule met in the Bouleterion.

Each of the 10 tribes elected 50 of their members to represent them in the boule.
Only the members of the boule could go to the bouliterian because that is where they made & voted on decisions for the comunity.
Boule-d'Amont's population is 73.

The Boule was a form of council in Ancient Greece.
The members of the boule were picked on one special day but how you might ask well that is what I am here to tell you. On one special day all of the citizens (Athenian born men who pay there taxes all the time) gather up at the buliterian and have there names written on a stone and put into a slot and 500 names are randomly selected and the lucky 500 winners are the members of the boule. This might sound silly but it is still a good way to be fair when you think about it it's better than just saying I like kilowatt so he's a member of the boule.
