Best Answer

The popular assembly, embracing the male citizens of the city-state, who met each fortnight to approve legislation and important policies.

Between assembly meetings, a council of 500, comprising 50 councillors elected by the 10 tribes, carried out these directions, and brought matters before the assembly meetings.

Of the 500 councillors, 50 were on duty in rotation 24 hours a day to deal with any urgent matters, and oversee and execute the daily routine of city administration.
