Your accidental adjective "notional" is particularly apt in reference to ancient Greek government. They tried everything! The various city-states of Greece enjoyed every form of government known, and managed to make a mess of just about every one. In particular, the democracy of Athens that we admire so much today was one of the worst tyrannies in history, routinely exiling or executing its outstanding citizens and patriots, while the militaristic oligarchy/kingdom of Sparta that we despise today was remarkably stable and just, especially in contrast to Athens.
There were three main forms of government in ancient Greece: Monarchy, Oligarchy and Democracy. I am unable to locate how the government of the Greek cities reflected the structure of the Greek families.
Attempting to talk about ancient Greece as if had a single government. The Greek world comprised over 2,000 independent city-states each with their own government, with several systems being used.
Uh, yes. The Ancient Romans had gods that were extremely similar to the Greeks.
According to research I have done, Ancient Greek gods born of Zeus are immortal (live eternally). Because this was an Ancient greek belief, it is not currently followed at this date: so the ancient greek gods died over time as people started to swap religions. The ancient Greeks and the Romans had similar beliefs, and therefore believed in the same gods, but called them different names. Apollo, however, is the ancient greek and the roman term for the same god.
Ancient Athens adopted the first directly democratic government
The Greek city-state was the one and only form of government, carrying out all the functions of government, rather than having three levels.
The Greek city-state carried out all forms of government as the cities were independent - equivalent to small countries, like eg Singapore is today.
democracy
Greek. Many buildings in the US government are of the ancient Greek style.
The Ancient Greek created the principles of government.
The U.S. government is a federal republic with a system of checks and balances between its branches, while Ancient Greek government varied across city-states but commonly included forms of direct democracy, oligarchy, and tyranny. The U.S. government is structured on a constitution, whereas Ancient Greek government often operated without a written constitution.
