Greeks and Romans were different nations and spoke completely different languages.
Although these two civilizations look alike (in religion, education, dressing and so on), there are also many differences in the way of thinking. The Romans considered granduise and impressive as something ideal, while Greeks appreciated something simple and essential. This can be observed for example in architecture and literature. It was easy for the Romans to accept their emperors as Gods, but in Greece, Alexander the great was the single monarch who tried to impose this idea and he was found dead soon after that. The greek ideals are based on the concept of a man's freedom and this is why they lacked a central government and they were divided in smaller city-states and kingdoms. On the other hand, the roman empire was united and the Romans were seen as subjects and servants of Rome.
