Answer:

Athenian democracy was direct which led to a more conscious citizenship about political affairs, however most of the inhabitants of Athens were not considered citizens. Alexander the Great was not interested on implementing a demoractic system due to the diplomatic problems between Macedonia and Athens.

Explanation:

Athenian Democracy: Strengths and shortcomings

It is said Athenian democracy is one of the first democracies in the world. It was a direct system,  which means citizens did not vote for representatives to  rule on behalf of the rest of the inhabitants, but the citizens participate directly on politcal decisions, in fact it was a must of any any Athenian who met certain requirements (age, military training, etc). Unfortunately, we can debate how democratic that system was becasue most of the people in Athens were not rated as citizens. Slaves, foreigners, women and children were not citizens, reducing the amount of eligible candidates to be part of Athenian democracy.

Alexander the Great

Macedonia, led by Alexander the Great in conjuntion with the other Greek states fought together against Persia, however, after the war, the relations with those states got fragile which led to a War promoted by Athens and Sparta against Alexander. Macedonia won the war and was not interested on adapt political ideas of their former enemies, in fact democracy in Athens got limited during Macedonian domain.

What are the negatives of living in Outremer?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The Outremer 45 is the 51’s baby sister, a boat made famous by the Internet’s most famous sailing family, Elayna, Riley and Lenny on La Vagabonde. What a marketing deal that turned out to be! This model filled some pretty big shoes left by the previous 45 footer designed by Gérard Danson.

Lovely Lines

The 45 is a great looking boat, well proportioned and designed to deliver the Outremer promise: fast, safe sailing in comfort. For the French yard, comfort is more about the motion of the boat and speed of passage than huge berths in fat hulls. This is an ocean crossing boat like a Looping catamaran: one that gets going quickly in light airs and which is a blast to sail in windier conditions. It’s incredible how catamaran design has evolved in 20 years (read our Prout 45 review for a comparison of a boat from the mid nineties).

pros

The Outremer 45 is a fast, seaworthy yacht designed for crossing oceans. She is probably the market leader in her category.

With centralised weight and those long trampolines, she has a smooth ride in waves.

She’s well built and sturdy, and great to look at.

The Outremer after-sales service has an excellent reputation, especially compared to other French manufacturers which, how should we put this, …. are not so fast once they have sold you the boat. If you have a problem in Tahiti, these guys will do their best to help you out.

Outremer also offer a thorough training program for purchasers of new boats. Their philosophy is one of building up a family of owners: something to be applauded.

Outremers hold their value very well compared to other manufacturers. These boats are in demand.

cons

The compromise is living space compared to other 45 footers. So even though she’s the same length as, for example, a Nautitech 46, she feels like a 40 once you step inside. But you will be leaving the Nautitechs behind on the 45.

With the aft cockpit covered by a long strip rather than a full bimini, you are more exposed on a 45 than other catamrans. You can opt for material or hard “ears” which extends the cover out to full width for some of the bimini length. Some owners opt for a dodger at the helm station as well.

This bucket seats could be a little bigger.

The base price is pretty competitive, but the options can add up.
