4. Read the excerpt from the “Greek Governments” informational reading: Athens is known as the first recorded instance of democratic rule, but the city-state was not born a democracy. When Homer composed the Iliad and Odyssey around the eighth century B.C., Athens was just beginning.

Though the city-state would not thrive agriculturally with poor soil, its proximity to the Aegean Sea led to economic growth through trade.
