The Early Modern Age is generally considered to have begun in the late 15th century and ended in the late 18th century. This period is sometimes referred to as the "Age of Discovery" because of the many technological and geographical advancements that were made during this time.

During the Early Modern Age, Europe experienced a number of significant changes. The most significant of these was the Renaissance, a period of great cultural and intellectual achievement that began in Italy in the 14th century and spread throughout Europe over the next two centuries. The Renaissance saw a renewed interest in classical learning and the arts, and was a time of great scientific advancement.

Another significant change during the Early Modern Age was the Protestant Reformation, a religious movement that began in the 16th century and had a profound impact on Europe. The Reformation led to the splitting of the Catholic Church, and to the rise of Protestantism as a major force in Europe.

The Early Modern Age was also a time of great political change. The most significant event was the French Revolution, which began in 1789 and ended in 1799. The Revolution resulted in the overthrow of the monarchy and the establishment of the French Republic. The Revolution had a profound impact on all of Europe, and was a key factor in the development of the modern world.

Ancient Greece. But I'm guessing you already knew that. There were many Greek city-states, the most known and studied ones include: ATHENS and SPARTA. There were the Persian Wars, between Greece and Persia that first unified the Greeks, and the Pelopennisian Wars between the Sparta and Athens, (a Greek civil war). Some useful VOCABULARY:

polis=city-state acropolis= hill which city-state was built around agora= market place that served as public meeting area

Hellas. That is what the Greeks called it, and they called themselves Hellenes (after their traditional founder Hellen. The word is still in use today). The word Greek arose when the Romans were penetrating the Italian peninsula. They ran into a tribe called the Graeci, then the Hellenes who had established city-states in southern Italy (Naples, Tarentum, Croton, Sybaris etc). Thinking them to be Graeci, they called the area Great Graeci. The name stuck.
