Answer: d. Athens

Step-by-step explanation:

Between 620 and 593 BC, Athens, the main of the Greek cities, received from Dracon and Solon its first fundamental laws and that is how the evolution that would culminate in democracy began. It started a mixed republic inclined towards democracy and Greece induced other Greek cities to democracy, alarming those who still had oligarchies like Sparta.
