One of the first factors that led Athens to stand out and gain power was the Port of Piraeus, which is one of the largest ports in the Mediterranean. It was he who boosted maritime trade, enabling the expansion of the Athenian domain in the 8th century BC Athens was a Mycenaean city, that is, it was part of the Mycenaean Civilization, which was based on commerce and which involved several cities, in the period from 1600 to 1050 BC , among them Athens.

During the Homeric Period Athens dominated Attica politically. The Athenians lived under aristocratic regimes and the land was concentrated in a small portion of the population, the eupatrids. In contrast, most of the population was made up of peasants and artisans who had difficulty surviving and who often ended up enslaved because of debt because of this. Slavery was a common practice in the ancient world. However, this system cannot be confused with the process of slavery of African populations, intensified by the process of European domination in the Americas and which was characterized by the diaspora.

Athens' growth was largely due to its strategic location for maritime trade. The enrichment of traders in the region increased Athens' political and economic power. Because of this, the Athenian aristocracy was under pressure. Athenian democracy emerged as a way of guaranteeing a certain political participation by citizens and so that eupatrids were not the only ones to make decisions regarding public affairs. This system brought guarantees, but also uncertainties. The solution found was to promote a strategy that could ward off those who posed a threat to Athenian unity. Ostracism was a form of exile that kept people considered dangerous for ten years. This was a strategy that avoided wars and internal conflicts.
