Answer:
A. the birth of democracy
Explanation:
<u>The political organization known as democracy has its roots in the ancient greek city-state of Athens.</u> It developed there, somewhere around the 6th century BC, and prevailed for two centuries.
The term democracy comes from the word demos, which referred to the citizens. <u>This is because it was the citizens who had the right to vote and decide on various political questions.</u> All who could participate had the equal right to discuss and state their ideas, and their votes had an equal effect.
However, not everyone was considered to be a citizen. In fact, only adult free males who were not foreigners had the right to vote. This strictly excluded women and slaves who were not considered to be politically adept.
