Pericles Man of Gold

The Golden Age is a time of peace and prosperity. Usually new inventions and ideas were made and there are many achievements in art and architecture. The Golden Age in Greece took place from 461B.C. to 429B.C. Pericles ruled the during the Golden Age. This ruler had three specific policies that people had to live by. The first rule was to strengthen democracy. The second rule was to strengthen the Athenian Empire and the last rule was to glorify Athens.
Do you think the Golden Age was a bad or good time in history?
