Which of these statements best compares the Roman Republic with ancient Greece's direct democracy?
Answer this question…Voters elected representatives in the Roman Republic. In the Greek direct democracy, voters themselves enacted laws and policies.
Is ancient Greece democracy or republic?
YES, Greece was certainly under a Democracy in 405BC. At this time the Pelopannesian War [431 - 404BC] was coming to an end, and Athens [Greece] suffered a defeat in the battle of Aegospotami against Lysander [Sparta]. Also by this time the Spartan King Pausanias had laid seige to Athens and Lysander's fleet had set up a blockade at Piraeus. This effectively closed the grain route to Athens, and it's population began to starve. 404BC Athens capitulates and is forced to negotiate the terms of its surrender to Sparta. Then began the year of Anarchy or The Rule of the 30 Tyrants.
How did pericles become king?
In today's terms he was a consummate politician, using popular support to become First Citizen, even though there was no such official position. The Athenian democracy selected its magistrates by lot, but were clever enough to select generals on merit, and so when an important action had to take place, whether military or civil, gave execution of it 'to the generals'. So Pericles, as a general, fixed things, including using the anti-Persian funds (tribute paid by the cities) to bankroll half the Athenian citizens on the public payroll, the beautification of the city, and the maintenance of 100 warships on line to enforce collection of the tribute. And he had his chief political opponent ostracised (exiled) to avoid competition in the power game. Unfortunately he over-fixed things. Relying on Athens' Long Walls and unchallenged naval superiority with which to threaten all the coastal cities (most were) he allowed Athens to be drawn into a war with Sparta and its allies (well, virtually forced the Spartan alliance into war by Athens' aggressive approach and actions). Successes, then catastrophes followed, ending after 27 years in Athens' defeat and loss of its empire. Pericles died early in the war, so it is unknown whether he could have steered the Athenian alliance to victory. Unlikely, after Presia intervened and gave the Spartan alliance the money to build and crew a war fleet that could compete with Athenian alliance fleet.
