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.
