The Greek city-states were in constant hostility between themselves. There were brief periods of solidity under foreign invasion, and shifting alliances between groups of cities, but warfare was normal. It took the rise of Macedonia to temporarily tame this, but it reverted to renewed divisions and warfare, eventually controlled by their eventual absorption into the Roman Empire which enforced peace.

∙ 11y agoThe Ancient Greeks were typically more inclined to kill one another than actually 'unite' as it were. This happened on occasion, most prominently whenever Persia became involved... However you should try to see Ancient Greece as more of a very rough and occasional collaboration of strictly independent political identities. Usually they would unite on grounds of spite - indeed their disunity actually helped the Romans subjugate them.
