Equality in Athens by Abbie

                             Equality in Athens by Abbie
1/3 of Athens were slaves
9/10 of Athens were barred from voting
Woman we're not equal
Athens was not a fair democracy because only citizens could vote which are men because woman were not equal that means they could not vote they also had to persuade people. It was not very fair because the slaves had to sleep right under the watch towers. I think it was kind of fair because not all the rich people would always be in charge so instead they make it fair by choosing the people randomly. I have not chosen whether or not it is fair or not fair I think it is more unfair because there is a lot of slaves and woman were not equal me over the age of 20 and have been in the army and born in Athens  were considered citizens so even the woman who were born in Athens did not get to vote
