Ancient Greece did not have a government of assembly. It was comprised of over 2,000 independent city-states which each had its own form of government.

In a radical democracy, the assembly decided what was to be considered and decided on the outcome, which was implemented by the council. Anyone seeking to influence the assembly had to do it by effective oratory. Unfortunately good orators could sway them to unwise decisions, often with catastrophic results.
