They first spread to the east in Asia Minor as overpopulated cities sent out their surplus people to establish new cities for themselves. Then they sent them to the west as far as Sicily, Spain and North Africa, and east around the Black Sea. Eventually there were over 2,000 cities which comprised the Greek world.
