Democracy

Athens

gather all members of their community

Actually the funny bit with "Democracy" in Ancient Athens it that it was only men and only citizens (so, not slaves), a group which wasn't even "most members of their community", much less all of them.

I bet whatever tribes that did it well before Athens were a lot more "Democratic".
