Greece was mountainous, and thus less than 20% of its land could be farmed for grains, although its climate was perfect for growing grapes (for wine), and olives (for olive oil).

In the Fertile Crescent and Egypt, it was hot and dry, but the land was flat. Major rivers in the Fertile Crescent provided for peoples' irrigation needs, and the Nile River also provided water and fertile soil because of its annual floods. These areas could easily grow surplus grain.
