About 80 years.
It ended when Athens lost the Peloponnesian War and was stripped of its empire, and the empire's money which bankrolled the prosperity.
When people talk about Athens' Golden Age they usually mean the reign of Pericles. Athens golden age really begins around the time of Themistocles, and comes to an end around Pericles' reign - but people do so love labels.Another View:Athens was ruled by the popular assembly - all male citizensPericles was 'First Citizen' who was influential with the citizens, but he did not rule - the assembly met each fortnight and decided on policy issues. In between, a council of 500 was charged with carrying out these decisions and conducting administrative duties. Of the 500, ten percent was on 24 hour duty in rotation to handle immediate problems.
Their military defeat & their loss in the Peloponnesian War. Sparta burned all of the Athenian food supply and a plague also occurred in Athens which killed 1/3 of the population.
It was golden not because of Pericles but because of the gold Athens mulcted as taxes from the 200 Greek cities of its empire. This money bankrolled the Golden Age, which came to an end when Athens lost this empire and its gold.
it turned platnium
