Nobles
In ancient Greece, landowning nobles were known as "aristocrats." This term derives from the Greek word "aristokratia," meaning "rule of the best." Aristocrats typically held significant political power and social status, often owning large estates and influencing the governance of city-states. Their wealth and land ownership distinguished them from common citizens and shaped the political landscape of the time.
they were ruled by a class of nobles made up of priests and military leaders.
In ancient Greek city-states, the group that typically opposed the rule of nobles were the common people, often referred to as the demes or plebeians. This group sought greater political power and representation, leading to movements that favored democracy and the establishment of laws that limited the influence of the aristocracy. Their discontent often resulted in social unrest and demands for reform, ultimately contributing to the rise of democratic ideals in city-states like Athens.
