After the death of Alexander the Great (323 BCE), the various cities of Aetolia formed a confederacy that was governed by an Assembly of all free citizens.
A military general was elected annually to head the Assembly and councils were formed but the Assembly retained the power of war and peace.
The Aetolian League expanded its territory to include the city of Delphi in 290 BCE and by 220 BCE controlled most of central Greece outside Attika (Attica).
