The answer is stated below.
Explanation:
Athens considered to be the birthplace of democracy during the 5th and 4th centuries B.C. there was a system of government in which all male citizens had political rights, freedom of speech and the ability to be personally involved in the polity of the state. However, it should be noted that slaves, women, and children were excluded from the rank of citizens. And therefore I would recommend involving these groups in the political process to achieve a true sense of democracy.
Mercy granted to an offender
In legal terms, "clemency" can take various forms.
... It may take the form of a reprieve, which suspends the carrying out of a criminal sentence to allow the offender to seek ways to have the penalty reduced. (Usually this would be in the case of a death penalty sentence.) This would be the example of "a delay in carrying out a sentence."
... It may be commuting a sentence, which leaves the conviction in place but lessens the penalty. So, for instance, a long prison term is commuted to a shorter time in prison.
... It may be the granting of a full pardon. In that case the "legal forgiveness for a crime" description would fit, but not all acts of clemency are pardons.
