I also looked for the origins of the Roman Republic, because even though it wasn't exactly a democracy (but not even Athens was a full democracy for modern standards), it at least had the seeds of some important things that are tied to democracy (even today), mainly: the division of power, the election of leaders and the term limits. I was interested in understanding the beginnings of democracies and of course the first thing that came to mind is the Athenian democracy I learned about in school.
