week 9

today in class we took some more notes on greece and reviewed a little. some of the notes that i took were: monarchy is a rule by a single person, aristicrates are groups of noble landowning families, and oligarchies are wealthy groups dissatisfied with aristicratic rule. i also said that a tyrant is a powerful individual who gains control by appealing to common people for support and that draco says all athenians are equal by law, the punishment for most crimes is death.
