Solon, Cleisthenes, and Pericles were instrumental in shaping Athenian democracy. Solon introduced reforms that aimed to alleviate debt and promote social equality, such as the abolition of debt slavery and the establishment of a more inclusive political system. Cleisthenes further democratized Athens by reorganizing the political structure into ten tribes and creating the Council of Five Hundred, which allowed for greater participation of ordinary citizens. Pericles expanded these democratic principles and emphasized the importance of civic participation, leading to the establishment of a more direct form of democracy where citizens could engage actively in political decision-making.

The Greek statesman Pericles then expanded the democracy. He was an Athenian statesman who had an impact on politics that remains today.
Solon was appointed to counter the friction, and threat of revolution, between upper and lower classes mainly over debt slavery. He solved this problem, but it had little to do with democracy which is the people at large controlling government. That did not happen for another 90 year under the active leadership of Cleisthenes in 507 BCE who brought in an assembly where landowners, big and small, passed legislation.
