powers, and finding a route across the Western half of the continent. The
journey lasted from 1804 to 1806.

Answer:
1.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.
2.Ancient Athens had direct democracy because people of Athens were directly bringing decision in the country, through political bodies they have established. The most important one was Assembly (Ecclesia).
3.Socialism didn't exist back then. Dictators would be thrown out through the process of Ostracism. Last monarch in Athens in Codro was removed from his position.
4.The political system of ancient Athens differs from the political system of the US today in that Ancient Athens had a direct democracy, while the United States has a representative democracy. In a direct democracy every citizen votes on every decision that is made, while in a representative democracy every citizen votes to elect public officers, that will represent them in making decisions on how to run the country.
5.During the Golden Age of Athens a tribute was a tax paid to the empire. The word continued to be used, for instance in Latin America most people needed to pay a tribute to the Spanish crown.
