Sparta

PNYX

Wikipedia states this is a hill in central Athens with a speakers platform called the Bema. It was the meeting place of the first democratic legislature, the Athenian Ekklesia.

Athens formed an alliance of Greek cities to oppose Persia after the Persian invasion had been repulsed. The alliance was funded by contributions from the league while Athens provided the naval power financed by this.

When peace was made with Persia, Athens continued to levy the contributions, using its navy to do so by force if necessary. This league thus effectively became an empire of Athens.

After the problems with Sparta were over, Athens looked westward to Sicily to expand its sphere of influence in the Mediterranean world. The idea was propagated by Alcibiades. Nicias, who had negotiated the peace agreement with Sparta was opposed to the idea. He was outvoted and three generals were named to lead the expedition to conquer Sicily. As events began to unfold, Athens suffered losses in their quest for a larger empire. Bottom line, the idea was a bad one.

They became more advanced in the arts and we not as war-like as the Spartans.

This proves that the Athenians are a well developed group of people.

Solon was given a position known by political theorists as a Legislator (see Machiavelli): a person who is recognised to be wise who is given authority to craft foundational laws for a society. In the more practical (and technical sense) he was appointed Eponymous Archon of Athens, by a vote, to reform the existing laws. Many of his reforms included attempts to shift Athens away from a largely agrarian economy in order to draw in more craftsmen. Much of his reforms failed to achieve their immediate desired goals, but in the long run he was considered the great "founder" of the "Athenian democracy" and is one of seven Greek sages.

It was also called the "Periclean Age". This is because the leader of Athens at this time, Pericles, did many good things to help rebuild Greece.

Pericles made Athens a beautiful city.
