The ancient Greeks never developed a unified system of government primarily due to their geographical landscape, which comprised numerous islands and rugged mountains that hindered communication and transportation. This led to the establishment of independent city-states (poleis), each with its own political systems and cultures. Additionally, fierce local identities and rivalries fostered competition rather than cooperation among these city-states, making unification difficult. The diversity of political structures, such as democracy in Athens and oligarchy in Sparta, further contributed to the lack of a cohesive government across Greece.

The Greeks developed a unified culture primarily through shared language, religion, and customs, despite their political fragmentation into city-states. The Greek language facilitated communication and the exchange of ideas, while a common pantheon of gods and religious practices fostered a sense of collective identity.

This shared identity helped the Greeks maintain a sense of unity even amidst their diverse local identities.
