I want to know the answer to the following question:
On what principle did the Ancient Greeks first think was best for governance?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Plato nevertheless hoped that the best men would be good at respecting established laws, explaining that "Where the law is subject to some other authority and has none of its own, the collapse of the state, in my view, is not far off; but if law is the master of the government and the government is its slave, then the situation is full of promise and men enjoy all the blessings that the gods shower on a state."". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
