The Greeks were not under Pericles. The Greek world comprised hundreds of independent city-states with different forms of government. Pericles became First Citizen of the city-state of Athens. Pericles consolidated direct democracy in Athens, that is all the citizens of whatever property class were able to attend the meetings of the Assembly held a couple of times a month to vote on laws and policy decisions (as opposed to representative democracy, where citizens elect representatives to a parliament which enacts laws). Also, persons for public office were selected by lot, which meant that any citizen could hold the highest offices in the state (appointment of generals was excluded from this - the people weren't that suicidal, they wanted real talent there). In addition, the judges at trials were large juries (typically 400, but up to 2,000), also chosen by lot. In addition Pericles made sure of his popularity be putting nearly a third of the citizenry on the public payroll, so that they would share in the prosperity of the state (this prosperity came to a large degree by hi-jacking the funds of the Anti-Persian league which Athens led and collected the funds for, and held on the Parthenon). Athens encouraged the allied and subject cities in the Anti-Persian league (read Athenian empire in its later stages) to adopt radical democracy as had Athens.

we are all for the people, by the peoplw

They developed a radical democracy where all citizens met in assembly fortnightly to direct the council on actions to be taken. This is practicable only in a small state where citizens can cover the distance to vote in person. With our large states today this is impracticable, so we have representative democracy where elected representatives meet in a parliament to carry out the wishes of the people.

The American Founders established protective measures against the 'paradox of democracy' in this general way: they founded the United States of America as a republic rather than a full-fledged democracy. By doing so, they prevented any 'tyranny of the majority' from directly using governmental power to oppress the nation as a whole while also ensuring slow, orderly change (if change should be desired) in American government, among other protective measures.

The ancient Greek city-state of Athens is considered to have been organized as a limited democracy during much of its Classical Period simply because its democratic privileges and rights did not extend to all of its members. For instance, only certain males were allowed to vote and to hold public office.

The democracy in Athen included adult male citizens who chose to be part of it.

So who showed up?

Citizens who were rich enough to hold slave had free time to study philosophy and politics. All of the citizens in town when a legal case was argued were able to be part of a jury. However, a group of oligarchs was able to seize some power [ becoming more equal than the rest] and furthered there political ends by voting to banish troublesome citizens.

The powerful group changed but was alway small relative to the citizens.

First of all, we should note that only Athens and a few other city-states were ever democracies. The vast majority of Ancient Greece was ruled by monarchies or oligarchies and not by elections. However, the difference between Athenian democracy and the Roman Republic was that, in the former, all of the citizens voted on policies, whereas in the latter, only elected representatives voted on policies. (The difference was between direct democracy and representative democracy.)

It allowed Athens to flourish. (music,arts,poems,etc.)

Revolutionaries established representative forms of government in several states.

The first appearance of democracy is often said to have been in Athens in Ancient Greece. However one should be aware that there are very great differences on what was considered democracy in Athens and what is considered as democracy today (just as there is a rather large differences between modern democracies). For example only men could vote and these men had to be landowners as well as sons of two athenian parents.

No, freedom to do business promotes economic growth. China for instance is not a democratic country however they are experiencing massive economic growth because the people have been left free to do business

This quote is frequently cited by conservatives, who usually attribute it to Thomas Jefferson. But Jefferson scholars say he never made such a statement. More likely, it was uttered by conservative columnist Cal Thomas, in a column he wrote for a newspaper. (Before this response becomes political, it should be noted that erroneous quotes are used by politicians and pundits on both sides of the aisle. In many cases, the person using the quote is not aware that it is fake. Many quotes have been used so often that people genuinely believe they are accurate and are surprised to learn they are not.)

Greece as a nation did not exist at the time; it is the city-state of Athens that is credited with first having astablished a form of 'rule by the people'. Said people existing only of the free-born male citizens; the place (and rights) of Athens' women at the time can best be compared to that of today's Afghan rural women.

The form Athens' democracy took was that of a number of mass meetings of usually 500 citizens. Many of those meetings were however carefully orchestrated by the city's powerful families, who also made sure that all the executive jobs were carefully kept by and distributed amongst their own family members.

im a loser and Rome was never a Democracy, it was a Republic controlled primarily by the Nobles in the early stage and later by both the plebians (average poorer citizens) and by the Patricians (Roman Nobles). The senate was only for Roman nobles and the concilium plebis was to establish laws by the general populace. The change from Roman Republic to Roman Empire can be traced to 27 B.C. when octavian (Augustus Caesar First Emperor of Rome) "returned" power to the senate after the civil war, but in fact gave the senate little to no power and he was the shadow leader under what was then called the principate.

It is a direct consequence of the principle that all adults have the same right to choose which of them will enact laws to govern them. In a sense, it is a kind of equality amongst adults.

Quite a wonderful question, most of us tend to read novels but fail to get any stylistica features from the same. To list just but a few, this are some of the stylistic features that artists use in trying to pass a message to us: Use of symbolism: This is where the writer/artist uses a symbol to describe, represent or characterise a person, thing or place. For instance, the use of a broken egg to describe or represent a lost society e.t.c Suspense: Is another stylistic feature used which in actual sense leaves the audience who is the reader with so many questions about what happened next. For instance "....and he was no more. Irony: This one, the writer uses to contradicting explanations. For instance, the use of phrases like "sweet sorrow". Rhyming words: This are words that have the same feel maybe due to the sound of utterance or to the way they are written. For instance "The Garden of Eden" Where garden and Eden sound the same. Sarcasm: This is where the writer gives another character the words of another and makes them sound impolite to the other party. It might involve the other party saying the same words in a way that may offend the other. For example, a person dressed clumsly might be complemented for dressing well. Satire: Is more like sarcasm however, it mostly deals with actions unlike sarcasm which deals with words. However, both are geared towards offending the other party. Other stylistic features or stylistic devices as they are called , will be discussed with time because in reality, they are so many and can consume much time to exhaust at one go.
