The correct answer is Athens.

Explanation:

In Athens, The Assembly (also called Ecclesia) was the regular opportunity for all male citizens of Athens, regardless of their station, to express their opinion and vote regarding the government in their state. It was the principal assembly of ancient Athens, responsible for declaring wars, planning military strategies, electing the members like strategoi and other officials.

Sparta had two kings who ruled the city and a 28-member council of elders, but with limited powers. These men were elected from the aristocratic class. The Spartan kings were elected from two hereditary families (Agiad and Eurypontid), which were considered descendants of Heracles so that one king could not act against the power of another king. Their duties were religious, judicial, and military.
