Sparta and Athens: City-State Rivals Chapter 9.2

Political Changes Wealthy nobles began to take power from the kings as the Greek city-states grew. The farmers did not like the nobles in charge. By 650 B.C., farmers, merchants, and artisans wanted reform (change). Only the land owners were considered citizens, so the other groups had no power.

Tyrants All of the political unrest led to tyrants taking control. Even though a tyrant has total authority, many in charge of the city-states were fair rulers.

Early Greek Government When the tyrants first overthrew the nobles, the common people were supportive. Ruled most city-states until c.500 B.C. Tyrants were liked because: Built new temples and marketplaces Supported the army

Early Greek Government Greeks still wanted to participate in government even if they didn’t own land. Around 336 B.C., city-states became oligarchies or democracies. Sparta and Athens were two of the city-states with different governments and culture.
