What was the population for Ancient Greece?

The population of ancient Greece increased by a factor larger than ten during the period from 800 BC to 400 BC, increasing from a population of 800,000 to a total estimated population of 10 to 13 million, according to wikipedia. It really depends though on the geographical and temporal extent under consideration. In it's prime, it has been suggested that along with the colonies Greece had a population much higher than modern Greece, although it is hard to suggest a figure.

What did 18th century Americans learn from ancient Greece and Rome?

The importance of classical learning rested for Thomas Jefferson in the sole fact that they are 18th-century Americans chose to draw on antiquity in their political discourse. To a certain extent, the ancient Roman concept of "republic" was known, as imperfect as it was, and it was a model that 18th century political thinkers believed could be improved upon. !8th century thinkers found the Roman model to be a giant leap forward, and centuries later it was seen as an alternative to monarchies.

Why did the cities of ancient Greece grew separately?

Because Greece as we know it today did not exist then. Greeks of the ancient period did not have an idea of a nation of Greece, they simply shared culture and language to some extent. Therefore cities ran themselves independently, Athens famously ran itself as democracy for some of its history whereas Sparta was a monarchy. Each city had its own idea of government etc and so they saw no need to form one nation. Greece could act together, mostly when faced with a common threat, but soon after each city went back to trying to be the dominant city in the area.

What is the same about ancient Greece and Canada?

To a certain extent modern Greece is a continuation of ancient Greece, as the latter survived and changed in the years of the Byzantine Empire. Although the Greeks never faced a medieval cultural 'break' as did western Europe, they did suffer centuries of conquest and oppression under the Turks, which undoubtedly influenced them. Also over the centuries, the Greek language changed and was to a certain extent simplified. Although modern Greek language and culture are similar in many ways to ancient Greece, there are major differences, primarily caused by the change in Religion. Ancient Pagan Greece was far more nature-oriented and more accepting of things like nudity and sexuality than modern Christian Greece. However we must keep in mind that the Greeks were the first to accept Christianity as their religion. Also, ancient Greece had no concept of Greeks being a "nation" as they were divided into many hundreds of City States (Polis, "Πόλη" in Greek) which spread out over the entire eastern Mediterranean as well as North Africa, Sicily and southern Italy. What the Greeks did share in ancient times was their language which they saw as a mark of cultural brotherhood, and not as any indication of political unity. They also shared the ancient Greek religion of the 12 gods of Olympus (with many variations), like today Greeks share Christianism. Language, religion and common culture were the things defining ancient Greeks and are now the things defining modern Greeks. However the ancient Greeks fought numerous wars against each other (e.g. the Peloponessian war). So in many ways, ancient Greeks had an "international" or cosmopolitan worldview due to their being divided into so many small nation states, spread over a large area (there are actually equally many ancient Greek Ruins spread all around the Mediterranean, as in modern mainland Greece). Modern Greeks are the ones who live in the state called "Greece". However many people fond of the Greek way of thinking and insist on calling themselfs "Philhellenes", i.e. "friends of the Greeks". In that way the "international" worldview of Hellenes still exists today.
