Athens' government changed over time.

Up until 508/7, Athens was a tyranny.

Cleisthenes introduced democracy but Athens then became an Oligarchy under the aristocrats who led the city to ward off the Persian invasion.

460 CE Ephialtes reintroduced democracy, was assassinated for this, and his deputy Pericles took over to complete Athenian democracy. It was a direct democracy by the people, unlike the representative democracy of today.

Then it was conquered by Alexander and etcetera etcetera.
