    '''Gerontocracy''' is a form of [[File:Oligarchy.png]] [[Oligarchy|oligarchical]] rule in which an entity is ruled by leaders who are significantly [[file:Gero.png]] older than most of the adult population. The ancient [[file:Cball-Greece.png]] Greeks were among the first to believe in this idea of gerontocracies; as famously stated by [[file:Platon.png]] [[Noocracy|Plato]] "it is for the elder man to rule and for the younger to submit". However, these beliefs are not unique to ancient [[file:Cball-Greece.png]] Greece, as many cultures still subscribe to this way of thinking. This belief has been very common in [[file:Tribal.png]] [[Tribalism|tribal]] communities as the lack of writing meant that people relied on older people to seek knowledge much more frequently.
