Explanation:
Athenian democracy developed around the sixth century BC in the Greek city-state (known as a polis) of Athens, comprising the city of Athens and the surrounding territory of Attica. Athenian democracy is often described as the first known democracy in the world. Other Greek cities set up democracies, most following the Athenian model, but none are as well documented as Athens' democracy.
Athens practiced a political system of legislation and executive bills. Participation was far from open to all residents, but was instead limited to adult, male citizens (i.e., not a foreign resident, regardless of how many generations of the family had lived in the city, nor a slave, nor a woman), who "were probably no more than 30 percent of the total adult population".[1]
Solon (in 594 BC), Cleisthenes (in 508/7 BC), and Ephialtes (in 462 BC) contributed to the development of Athenian democracy. Cleisthenes broke up the power of the nobility by organizing citizens into ten groups based on where they lived, rather than on their wealth. The longest-lasting democratic leader was Pericles. After his death, Athenian democracy was twice briefly interrupted by oligarchic revolutions towards the end of the Peloponnesian War. It was modified somewhat after it was restored under Eucleides; the most detailed accounts of the system are of this fourth-century modification, rather than the Periclean system. Democracy was suppressed by the Macedonians in 322 BC. The Athenian institutions were later revived, but how close they were to a real democracy is debatable.
Having the horrors of the Great Depression at that time, the American people have already learned their lesson that the government had played a role to the mayhem. Liberal resurgence had started during the administration of John F. Kennedy where he pioneered civil rights movement and implement federal policies for economic stability.
Answer:
World War I occurred because of a combination of both. Longtime rivalries over colonial divisions, trade and economic influence and domination existed among the great powers of Europe. For example, Germany resented having too few colonies and British superior naval force. They had also created a web of military alliances and defensive obligations - both public and secret - among themselves aimed at others. In the aftermath of duke Ferdinand´s assasination and the rapid succession of events, those factors contributed to dragging them into the war.
