The benefits of a democratic system are:

The people can choose their representatives in government.
The rule of law is practiced.

Some periods in which democracy was not beneficial to both Greece and Rome are in periods when it took too long to come to a decision and there were different opposing views.

Some potentially negative aspects of democracy are:

A large region can influence the voting patterns based on certain factors and this is not exactly fair representation.
Lack of proper political education.

This simply means the government of the people where the people have the power to elect their leaders and also call for their impeachment or removal if they fail in their duty.
