The Golden Age of Athens was the second half of the 5th Century BCE.

Part of its 'Golden' tag came from its adoption of a direct democracy system from 460 BCE. That meant that the citizens med every fortnight and determined political matters. Magistrates and public servants implemented their decisions.

So the ruler of Athens was The People.
