I mean modern democracy, not ancient.Greek in its modern history had nothing
but democracy;dictators, kings and everything.We really have democracy from
1973 to nowadays, after the military dictatorship had fallen.USA, in
contrary, has democracy in the past ~300 years.

Quite amusing to see someone with a Greek name
mistaking Democracy as something "from USA".
Well, given the political climate of Greece since the 5th century BC, I
can see how it would be easy to forget.
