If we are talking of ancient Greece: mostly the fact that Greece was divided into numerous city-states, who were constantly at war with each other. Internally divided, they were no match for the Romans when these decided to conquer Greece and make it a Roman province in 146 BC.

If we are talking about modern Greece: the fact that Greece for many decades has been spending much more than they made in revenues, borrowing the rest. When they finally could no longer meet their payment obligations under those loans, they had to be 'saved' by their fellow EU-members. Since they have very little internationally competitive industry with which to grow out of the recession, Greece can only cut costs, resulting in massive unemployment, cutting of salaries and pensions etc.
