Ancient Greece itself had no real weakness, since each individual city-states makes up for the weakness of another. For example, Spartan had a horrible political system, with oligarchy, monarchy, and democracy all together, yet Athens' democracy more than makes up for Spartan's political weakness. On the other hand, Spartan military make the whole Greece military seem stronger.
No. Ancient Greece never had an empire. An empire is a vast territory ruled by one city. Ancient Greece was never united. It consisted of individual city-states with their own laws and customs. The only time they would unite was in times of crises. When the trouble was over it was back to their independent cities. The closest thing to an empire that could even remotely be considered Greek was the conquests of Alexander the Great. However this quickly fell apart at Alexander's death.No. Ancient Greece never had an empire. An empire is a vast territory ruled by one city. Ancient Greece was never united.

In Greece in ancient times
There's no comparison. Greece never had an empire in the first place. Ancient Greece consisted of independent city-states which would only unite in times of crises and when the problem was over, revert to their independence. The closest that Greece came to an "empire" was the conquests of Alexander the Great, but this fell apart at his death, as he made no provision for succession. The Romans, on the other hand, had their demise due to internal and external pressures brought about by social change and population movement.There's no comparison.

The colossus never survived therefore nobody of this time could tell us. But some accounts from ancient times relate the colossus to Alexander.
The truth is that there is no difference. The only thing that makes you think that there is a difference is the name. The Greek myths are all from the ancient times, hence "Ancient Greece"
