What did Pericles do to make sure that poor men as well as rich men were represented in the government?
Pericles implemented a system of pay for public officials, which allowed even poorer citizens to participate in government roles and civic duties. He also expanded the democratic system in Athens by increasing the number of positions available in the Assembly and other governmental bodies, ensuring broader representation. This approach helped to elevate the voices of lower-class citizens and allowed them to have a say in political decisions, fostering a more inclusive democracy.
