Give two examples of equality in government in Athens

The oligarchy structure in Sparta enabled it to keep war as a top priority. The Athenian democratic government gave the citizens in Greece more freedom. Ten percent of the total population of Athens had voting rights and all of these citizens were wealthy men who were over thirty years old.

Sparta had a powerful army and Athens knew that they could not beat them but they had the power of a naval unit which Sparta didn't have. What the two communities had in common was that they were both thinkers. They worshiped their gods and respected people.

After studying these poleis it is clear that Athens is the better polis because of its government, education, and society. ... The government in Athens was better then Sparta's government. After laws were written down and enforced, power was divided equally in Athens government.
