This was the Peloponnesian War. For a while, Athens was ruled by a small group of Spartans. But, for about 100 years, thousands of years ago, ancient Athens had a direct democracy, or a government in which all citizens vote on rules and laws.

The answer would be Athens. Athens ran much like a modern-day democracy would. Sparta was under a military rule.
