Athenian democracy
is a cornerstone of egalitarianism. One person, one vote. Everyone.
Here's something, though, Athenians mightn't've imagined:
I = II = III
IV = V = VI = VII = VIII
IX = X = XI = XII = XIII
XIV = XV = XVI = XVII = XVIII = IL = L = LI = LII = LIII
XIX = XX = XXI = XXII = XXIII = ... ?
XXIV = XXV = XXVI = XXVII = XXVIII = ... ?
XXIX = XXX = XXXI = XXXII = XXXIII = ... ?
Can you imagine it?
Please fill in the right side ... ?s and explain.

IC = C = CI = CII = CIII = ...
ID = D = DI = DII = DIII = ...
