700 BCE. Prior to the 8th Century
During this time period, most Greek city-states were monarchies. I believe this is an important becuase with two rulers, veerything could get mixed up, they could have a fight, etc. Monachies are used today, and are a great example of the word: organization. Having one person rule, gives a better chance for the city-state to be at its best. -
May 9, 700
From 700 BCE - 650 BCE
This is the time period were most Greek city-states become oligarchies ruled by the wealthy wine and olive oil merchants and lanowners. Many farmers are sold into slavery. I believe this is an important event because it shows how people can take advantage of you, and that living in a tyranny is the wrong way to go. It is especially bad if the poor people in the city-state could live like this. -

This is important because it gives more of an oppertunitty for Athens to gain more intelligence. The people who have attended, have increased the polis's intelligence which has given us knowledge today. -
800 BCE, The Written Code of Laws for Athens
During this time period, Sparta develops the first written code of law to govern its military. I believe this event is important becuase when Sparta devlopes a written code of laws, this helps keep the things in order with the military. This is important today because, since we use laws, I believe that it will also help keep us in order as a society. -

This is when Solon is the new and sole ruler of Athens. This is important because as the line of rulers in Greece keeps going, the more poor people are aloud to vote. This event is important becuase it freed many people from slavery. This will continue on in our generation, and the following. As time goes on, our leaders become better to the citizens, and to the country.
