Athens democracy begins to develop in the fifth century BC in a Greek city-state known as the polis. Following this practice, other Greek cities-states have established democracy.

This system implied a direct democracy in which citizens directly participated in voting when passing laws. Participation in decision-making was limited to about 30% of the population, which included adult men. They, of course, represents all citizens.

It should be noted that this principle enables the realization of collective political power with a significant respect for the rule of law as opposed to the rule of the majority. Collective political power and collective self-sufficiency have been created, which, due to the rule of law, excludes chaos.

Answer is: This is an example of democracy.
