Athens
From 700BC to 683BC, Athens was an aristocratic
republic. Well-educated, moral and model
citizens effectively ran the government. They were
proud to serve for the benefit of the state, to
improve it and not corrupt it. This system
broke down when the positions in government became
hereditary. This structure in Athens is
known as the Stoa of Attalos.
