The correct answer is Athens has laws that treat all people fairly, regardless of social class.

Athens was the cradle of democracy. There were laws and these laws applied equally to all people and all free people could participate in the democratic process of voting and make new policies that would be designed for the best of the people. This didn't happen in other city-states which were often ruled by single emperors and the class division was great.
