The Greeks had a massive influence on life today. They were the first to develop democracy. And they passed down the allowance of science and technology. If they did not do this we would have most of the stuff we have today. Although most things have been improved and advanced. They also were a big part of olive oil. They believed that if people do bad things they should be punished, that's the same as us. Greece has also influenced world entertainment. Their alphabet also influenced us today because they use letters like O= o same as our alphabet but we improved it
Ancient Greeks influenced western civilization in ways like the areas of philosophy, art and architecture, and math and science.
