What made inland travel and trade difficult in greeece?
Inland travel and trade in ancient Greece were challenging due to the region's mountainous terrain, which created natural barriers and limited the construction of roads. The steep hills and rugged landscapes made it difficult for large caravans to navigate, hampering trade routes between cities.

These geographical constraints contributed to the fragmentation of Greek city-states and the development of localized economies.
