How did people go? I reckon I got low 90s
Absolutely loved the paper, the very small amount I studied for Minoan and Pompeii was on there!!

Essay question was a bit shit though. If I'd studied more on Persian Wars I probably would've done a), but I knew I could get a lot of quotes in for b). Stucture was a bit off though.

wh


which question did you answer for greek world!!
Was going to do a) but I hadn't studied enough for Artemisium or Thermopylae, knew I wouldn't be able to get quotes in if I picked it, so went with b). structure was a bit weird because I didn't really know what to talk about beyond Pericles.

The essay questions were a bit shit tbh, but still doable.

ahh i know what you mean i spent so long deliberating between them because i knew so little for either but i had to go for a) because i at least knew some quotes and historians but i completely forgot the outcome of artemisium i had to make shit up and my structure was so questionable

i kind of wish i answered b) because my vague structure was the archonship and areopagus, influence of the thetes, payment for civil service, ostracism, etc but i wasn’t confident in it </3

My essay probably wasn't that great. I sorta did a huge paragraph on Pericles' legislation (Payment of the Jurors, Zeigutae to Archonship, reducing power of the areopagus-->Boule, Ecclesia, etc).
Then I tried desperately to link the Delian League --> Athenian Empire to the question since I studied so much on that, so I mostly spoke about how the Delian Leagues transformation to the Athenian empire was key to the preservation of democracy in Athens, since they were facing threats not only from the Persian Empire, but also the oligarchic Peloponnese.
Third one I tried to say that Pericles' development of Athens was crucial to the increasing public participation (thus developing democracy) among the lower classes (building Parthenon required artisans and lower class labourers). The 'Golden Age' of Athens also highlighted the success of a democractic system of government, (idk if that's relevant tho).

I think the question was 'How significant were the key developments of democracy in the Greek World 500-440 BCE'
