Answer:

They're the birth place of Democracy.

Explanation:

Ancient Greece was considered as the first civilizations that introduced the concept of Democracy.

The building in Ancient Greece was designed to accommodate a lot of audiences facing one specific direction where the speaker can present his/her case. The Roman civilization adopted this building and some principles from Greek's democracy.

American leaders in the past used these concept as a replacement for British' monarchy. They found that mimicking the building can be a source of inspiration that remind them about the core foundation of democratic government.

EastWind [94]

With his words, Olaudah Equiano said: "Immediately afterward the press-gang came on board with their swords drawn, and searched all about, pulled the people out by force, and put them into the boat." Those words emphasize the brutality of war. It would be hard for all of us the see stiffs all over around and to know that between them could be our beloved ones.
