Democracy was first established in the Greek city-state of Athens during its Classical period (roughly 500-350 B.C.E.). Although Athenian democracy was limited (thus, for instance, only adult males of a particular kind were allowed to vote) and was not maintained throughout Athens' long history in antiquity, it was a unique creation. This small beginning gave rise to the more powerful, inclusive, and stable democracies in modern times.
