he Greek world was comprised of hundreds of independent city-states, each with its own citizenship. People were citizens of a city, not some Greek country which did not exist.

To be a citizen of a Greek city, a person had to be descended from a citizen, be an adult male, and be accepted into one of the several tribes which made up the inhabitants of the city.

How was citizenship in ancient Greece different from citizenship as we know it today?

Citizenship in ancient Greece was primarily limited to free male landowners, excluding women, slaves, and foreign residents, whereas modern citizenship tends to be more inclusive, granting rights to all individuals regardless of gender or social status. Additionally, ancient Greek citizenship often came with direct political responsibilities and participation in local governance, while contemporary citizenship may involve a range of civic duties and rights that vary by country. The concept of citizenship in ancient Greece was closely tied to the city-state (polis) identity, whereas today, citizenship is typically associated with national identity.
