Depends on how far back you want to go as "ancient ." The first democracy was in Ancient Greece, but for the most part the world's countries have been ruled by kings and queens for thousands of years. They saw themselves as placed on the throne by God and along with the church they ruled to serve themselves. The ideas of the Enlightenment thinkers made them remarkable because they turned this idea on its head. Instead of the king at the top and then everyone at the bottom they made everyone equal to the king. The establishment of the American government was the first to use this idea that people could represent themselves and decide the government they want.
