The correct answer is Greek city-states.
<em>Democracy</em> (from Greek: Rule by People) is a system of government where the citizens exercise power by voting and electing a government.
During the Classical period ( 5th and 4th centuries BCE ), Greece was a collection of several hundred independent city-states. The citizens of Athens were the<em> first to develop a system of popular rule</em> under the rule of Cleisthenes. The first democracy was a direct democracy with two features: there was a random selection of citizens to fill administrative and judicial offices, and there was a legislative assembly consisting of all Athenians citizens. All eligible citizens were allowed to vote and speak in the assembly but women, slaves and foreigners, non-landowners and men under 20 years of age were excluded.
Jefferson's most fundamental political belief was an "absolute acquiescence in the decisions of the majority." Stemming from his deep optimism in human reason, Jefferson believed that the will of the people, expressed through elections, provided the most appropriate guidance for directing the republic's course.
