In the Greek city-states, a citizen was typically defined as a free male born to citizen parents, possessing political rights and responsibilities. Citizens had the right to participate in the assembly, vote on laws, and hold public office. Women, slaves, and foreigners were generally excluded from citizenship and its associated privileges, which emphasized the importance of lineage and local belonging in the civic identity of the city-state.
