If you can’t
tell from my title slide, then you realize that its sadly Monday which is the
beginning of the week which is probably the worst thing ever. Today in class we
took some notes from the power point and then we were allowed to either finish
our textbook read or do our blog which is awesome because then I won’t have to
do it for homework tonight. Overall today was a pretty good day beside not
having that extra hour of sleep but that’s fine. Here are some of the notes
that we took today:
- Polis:
fundamental political unit, made up of a city and the surrounding country
side
- Monarchy:
rule by single person (king, in Greece)
- aristocracy:
rule by a small group of noble. very rich, landowning families
- Oligarchy:
wealthy groups, dissatisfied with aristocratic rule, who seized power (military
help)
- Tyrant: powerful
individual who seized control by appealing to the common people for
support
