In ancient Greece, an oligarchy was characterized by the rule of a small group of elites, typically drawn from the wealthy or noble classes. This governing body held significant political power and often prioritized their own interests over those of the broader population. Oligarchies were marked by limited participation in governance, with decision-making concentrated among a few individuals, and they frequently emerged in contrast to more democratic systems, such as those seen in Athens. Additionally, oligarchies were often unstable, facing challenges from popular uprisings or rival factions seeking greater inclusion in political processes.
