Question

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• The Athenian democratic system aimed to distribute power. The first option states that the constitution established a structure preventing power concentration, which aligns with how Athenian democracy (e.g., through institutions like the Council of 500, Assembly, and juries) functioned to avoid tyranny.
• The second option is incorrect because Athenian democracy included native - born men (citizens) in participation.
• The third option is incorrect as Athenian democracy was not about granting unlimited power to one person; it was a system of shared power among citizens.

Answer:

A. It established a structure that prevented the concentration of power.
