I just got to Ancient Greece and developed my own city-state, Mariota. My city-state is a democracy, which means the people have the power. I would do this so there is no unfairness, since everyone got the right to vote. My picture represents democracy because it shows all of the people voting because they all have a choice!
The departure from a monarchy to a democracy was a good decision that led to less conflict in a city-state. Instead of one person being in charge and making the rules for the citizens, the citizens can make the rules themselves by voting.
