According to Pericles, Athens was distinguished by its democracy, cultural richness, and a unique approach to governance that combined deliberation with action. He emphasized the importance of generosity in building alliances and the value of debate in decision-making. These qualities helped Athens stand out among its rivals in ancient Greece.
