Greek and Roman ideals heavily influenced the creation of the American political process.
When America got independence from England in 1776, the founding fathers were looking to create a government of their choice. They took guidance from the Roman and the Greek model. Greeks were regarded as pioneers of democracy, so the American leaders were highly influenced by the democratic model of Greek's self-government policies. A U.S state resembled the community structure followed by the Greeks, called "polis" or "city-state".
