He made Athens a center for learning and the arts.

Explanation:

Pericles was an Athenian politician, rhetorician and reformer of Athenian democracy.

Paradoxically, although the power in the polis was concentrated in his hands, he created the Athenian democracy. In the years between 444 and 429 BCE he was elected annually as a strategist, that is, a military commander who also had an influence on the politics of Athens. He expanded and strengthened the democratic system, and took care of philosophers and artists. He also used the saved money to build magnificent buildings, such as the Parthenon.

Pericles also took care of the development of Athens' influence by establishing colonies along the Black Sea coast. He also expanded Piraeus (it was the most important port of ancient Athens), leading to Athens' commercial advantage in the Aegean Sea, which caused the conflict with Sparta in the Second Peloponnesian War.

- "the past is made of multitudinous items ranging from anything that can be collected, recollected or assessed to originate in the past. as such, the past is a gallimaufry of particulars that may not have been related in any way. however, the human mind seeks organization to understand concepts and other things. the human mind therefore seeks relationships in explaining and studying the past. history being a humanity, dictates that historians have to serve this human trait by bringing structure to details of the past. historians do this by creating interpretive frameworks that capture as many details as possible."
