they each had their own
When the nomadic Greek peoples settled in Greece, the various tribes took over a section of river valley or plain surrounded by mountains, separated from each other and so established separate communities and governance.

Independent city-states formed in Greece
Each year from 776 BCE.
The Greek city states (polis) were formed out of the Homeric period because of the iron age and Greece's impossible terrain. During the Homeric period the Mycenaean Greeks were in control of most of Greece's vast areas since their kings had bronze weapons. When iron was discovered that enabled anyone to make weapons, the kings lost their empires and the people began to form communities according to Greece's natural borders.
The ancient Greek cities were isolated from one another for two basic reasons. One was the hilly geography of Greece. This natural setting spawned several isolated communities. The second reason was that these communities grew into city-states, with the dominant community ruling the smaller ones. These city-states were concerned with their own problems and their own advancement and had little to do with each other unless it was for mutual defense or profit.
Early Greek communities were isolated from each other due to their geographical location, with rugged mountains and deep valleys making travel between them difficult. This isolation led to the development of unique cultures and identities in each community. Additionally, the decentralized political structure of ancient Greece, with each city-state governing itself independently, further reinforced this independence.
Greece consisted of hundreds of independent city-states, each with its own territory, city and government.
