2-22

Today in class we talked more about Lo2 and focused more a little on it because we have a test tomorrow on it. I used to think Sparta was a democracy, but it is actually an oligarchy, Sparta is the most wealthiest after 300 years because of oversea trade. Also, Athens was the power in Greece and most influential. Greece produced and traded wine, weapons, good metalworks, oil, and pottery. We learned two important words as well. They were aristocrats  and demos. Aristocrats are people who own land, and demos are middle working class who work for the aristocrats usually. Lastly, the aristocrats and the demos became allis! In 500 B.C. Greek produced the first democracy.
