How would you describe the history of democracy?

Asked by mattbrowne (31732points) February 25th, 2012

It all began around 500 BCE. What happened next? What are important dates in history in your opinion that allowed democracy to become a success model?

Do you agree with this Democracy Index, published in December 2010 with the palest blue countries getting a score above 9 out of 10, while the black countries score below 3?
