Best Answer

Ancient Greece was never a political entity - the Hellenic world was a wide range of cities, kingdoms and territories independent of each other. The original cities and their colonies stretched from Massilia (present Marseilles in France) through southern Italy, Sicily, North Africa, to the coasts of Asia Minor and the Black Sea.

When did the Greeks disappear?

The Greeks never disappeared, they still live in Greece today! They lost their independence over 2000 years ago when they were conquered by the Romans; later they had their own Empire, the Byzantine Empire, which was later conquered by the Turks. In the 19th century, they regained their independence. Ralph Watzke, J.D> ralphwatzke@gmail.com Regina, Canada

What is the relationship between the Greeks and the ottoman empire?

The Ottoman Empire conquered Greece in the 1300s and 1400s and Greece only broke free in a century of wars from 1821 until 1923. During those roughly five centuries of occupation, Greek culture and religion (Greek Orthodox Christianity) were sublimated and repressed. As a result, Greek Independence was mainly cast as a revolt against Ottoman identity, culture, and religion, creating a high degree of antagonism between Greeks and Turks (the dominant Ottoman ethnic group). The last two decades of the wars between the Greeks and Turks resulted in the Pontic Greek Genocide, where Turks murdered 500,000 Greeks who lived in Anatolia, and a number of Greek massacres of Turks, especially near Smyrna (modern-day Izmir).
