Ancient Athens relied heavily on the importation and exportation of goods, as they did not have many natural crops they could harvest. The mountainous area was poor for most edible crops, but Athens had an enormous exportation of olives. Pericles himself started this in order to increase the revenue of the nation. By requiring the sale of olives by those who made it, Athens' exports rose enormously through the sale of olives for eating and its oil.
