Question
- about how many years after the development of oligarchies did democracy appear?
- where did democracy develop? about when did that happen?
Question 3
Oligarchies were common in ancient Greek city - states. Oligarchies in places like Athens started to decline around the 6th - 5th century BCE. Democracy in Athens, a key example, began to develop with Solon's reforms in the early 6th century BCE and was further developed by Cleisthenes around 508/507 BCE. If we take the start of oligarchic dominance in Athens (say around 7th century BCE) to the development of democracy (around 508 BCE), the time difference is about 200 years. But different city - states had different timelines. For Athens, from the more oligarchic period to the rise of democracy, it's roughly 100 - 200 years.
Democracy developed mainly in ancient Greece, particularly in Athens. The development of Athenian democracy had key stages: Solon's reforms (early 6th century BCE) laid the groundwork, and Cleisthenes' reforms around 508/507 BCE established many democratic institutions. Other Greek city - states also had democratic or semi - democratic systems, but Athens is the most well - known example.

The time when democracy appeared after oligarchies varied by city - state. In Athens, democracy (with Cleisthenes' reforms) appeared about 100 - 200 years after the oligarchic period (e.g., from ~7th century BCE oligarchy to ~508 BCE democracy).
