When is the cheapest time to travel to Greece?

Depends on what you want to do. If you want to go swimming of course summer(or maybe a little sooner to avoid the crowd). Note that all seasons but summer you'll find that the islands have very low temperature and much wind/rain. I think the best time to visit Greece is September. Weather on the islands is still hot (85 degrees) but not really that many tourists in September. Therefore room prices are about half. Still hot enough to swim. Also, ferries are still frequent between the islands. By October the ferries don't run as frequently and most businesses like restaurants close down. I absolutely wouldn't go in July or August. Too busy. Too expensive.

When did Greece become a state?

Greece is not a contry yet but a union of 16 tribes with the helenic tribe liding the way. About 650 years the word Greece (gracia) was the first time that the name was introduced. What we call Greece, the people of Greece call themselves helenic, the word Greece was derived by the creaters of the union by chusing a non populated remote small valey as oficial name of the union so no one of the 16 tribes will get upset. otherwise all of them will want her name as oficial name of the union.

now ancent grees is only a metefor of outlining the area we are talking about, the actual woord or name Greece did not exist before the union eccept the unpopulated small valey of gracia. that is why it is so hard to find the creation or start of ghe contry of Greece, it is not in the uions interest to be widly exposed. you can find the information you are looking for about all the countries in the world, but not Greece. it is still a union and as a country it egsist only as superfisal in the peoples minds.

now all the ancent tribes still exist but are suprest by the unions governers in order to keep in power and controle the people.

now if my ancwer is not belivable than look at any ancent and original scripts or riding, or eaven the bible as one of the oldest books. all the old tribes and countries and nacionalities are mentened but Greece is nower to be found until 650 years ago and in old mops with new writen words.
