The ancient Greek world comprised several hundred independent city-states spread from Massilia (modern Marseilles) through Sicily, North Africa, southern Italy, the eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea. Some of these from to time formed defensive alliances, but there was never a leader of Greece as a whole, other than when Phillip II of Macedon was accepted as Hegemon (leader) by many of the city-states of mainland Greece. His son Alexander succeeded him as Hegemon after his assassination.
