What Wikipedia says

Athenian democracy developed around the 6th century BC in the Greek city-state (known as a polis) of Athens. It comprised the city of Athens and the surrounding territory of Attica, and supported ideals of liberty, equality, and security. Athens practiced a political system of legislation and executive bills.
