This polity was briefly ruled by an oligarchical council called the Four Hundred, which was led by Theramenes.  After leading this polity to victory at the Battle of Cyzicus, Thrasybulus liberated its people from the rule of another group. Citizens of this city- state wrote and collected pottery shards with names written on them to determine whom they should exile, a fate that befell a man who persuaded this city to build 200 triremes to be used against the Persians at Salamis. In addition to Themistocles, leaders of this city included a man who led it through its Golden Age, Pericles. For 10 points, name this city that invented democracy, currently the capital of Greece.
