The Athenian polis means the city of Athens. It also means the males that were allowed to vote. Women and slaves were not allowed any rights.
The Peloponnesian War, fought between Athens and Sparta from 431 to 404 BCE, ultimately led to the demise of the Athenian polis. The protracted conflict drained Athenian resources, weakened its military, and resulted in significant loss of population and morale. Following its defeat, Athens lost its empire and influence, leading to a decline in its political power and a shift in the balance of power in ancient Greece.

A polis was a city-state of ancient Greece.
A polis, or a Greek city-state. had it's own political system and military. Each Greek polis was organized differently. The most popular example of a polis was Athens. The Athenian people elected a leader called an Archon to be the political leader. Athenian men formed an Assembly which was a type of court. The city was centered around the agora, which was a market place and civic center.
During its Classical Period, the ancient Greek society of Athens was a "democratic polis" for the following reasons: The term "polis" means "city", and Athens was fundamentally a city-society (or, city-state). Furthermore, the Athenian "city" practiced a democratic form of government, limited though it might have been; that is, ultimate power rested in the hand of the citizen-body rather than in any one individual or small group of rulers.
