Ancient Greece

There were two questions left unanswered: who is superior and who decides? Of course, the rich and well-connected seemed to be superior and acted so. In time the aristocracy came to be chosen only from the ranks of the upper class, who were not necessarily the finest minds in society. It is natural that a father would want his son to follow in his footsteps even though that son may not have the common sense or natural ability for the job. Such misplaced people were more concerned with their own appearance and status than the fate of the people they were supposed to govern.
