The Greek city-states had many things in common.

They were not forced to believe - they simply believed in them. They spoke the same language. That had a common culture - their love of beauty and competition to name two. Their city-states were located on the same peninsula.

The cities were in fact city-states, a tract of land with a city as its centre. That is, a nomad tribe would seize a tract of land, settle on it, and establish a fort on a hill (acropolis) as a defensive refuge against other nomads and neighbours. As the settlement developed, a city would be built around the acropolis and so a city-state would emerge.

Each city-state was independent, and was in competition with its neighbours. They had some different characteristics according to their location - ones by the sea had fishing industries and developed trade by sea. The inland ones were basicallt farming communities. Eaach tried to develop other production eg minerals, to add to their prosperity. Others developed religious centres for the same reason.

Ethnic, religious and cultural ties which transcended their local differences. And a regard for others as outsiders - barbarians.
