Athens and Sparta Mixer
EXPECTATIONS
• Do not push anyone while you are walking through the rows to
meet people.
• The stop light is on yellow, which means lightly talking
• If someone comes up to you and introduces themselves do not
ignore them or just tell them to read your sheet! It’s your job to
introduce yourself!
• Do not just run around asking “Who’s a soldier, who’s a soldier?
Take time to let the person formally read their paper to you and
introduce themselves.

memorize some facts about yourself. (2
minutes)
• Introduce yourself to people (with your NEW
Greek identity). Learn about the people you
meet and write down the names of the
students that you meet whose role fits their
description. Circle which city-state they come
from. Try to fill your whole sheet with correct
names within 5 minutes.
Athens and Sparta
• Athens and Sparta were
two large Greek citystates.
• Both Athens and Sparta
became large and
powerful because they
were centers of trade.
The “agora” was an open
space used for business
and public activities.
Trade once bustled in this
agora in Athens. All that
is left today are ruins.
Government
What type of government did
Athens have?
• The Council of Five Hundred was made up of
500 men, 50 men from each of the 10 tribes.
Any citizen over the age of 30 was qualified to
be a member. Each tribe chose the men by
lot, or at random, to serve for a term of one
year. Members could be reelected only once.
The yearly turnover allowed for a greater
number of Athenian citizens to participate in
their government at a high level. Laws were
passed by a majority vote in the assembly.
Athenian Government
• The first direct democracy was developed in
Athens.
• Citizens worked together to make laws and
policies. Women and slaves were not
considered citizens, so they did not have the
right to vote.
What type of government did
Sparta have?
The city-state Sparta in Ancient Greece had a 30
member senate. It also had an assembly in
which all males could be members. However,
the actual rulers were a group of five
landowners known as the ephorate. Two
kings ruled above the ephorate, but the
ephors could fire the kings if they were not
living up to their promises.
Spartan Government
• Sparta was first ruled by an oligarchy mixed
with a democracy.
The city-state Sparta in Ancient Greece had a 30 member
senate. It also had an assembly in which all males could be
members. However, the actual rulers were a group of five
landowners known as the ephorate. Two kings ruled above the
ephorate, but the ephors could fire the kings if they were not
living up to their promises.
What makes this an oligarchy? What makes this a democracy?
