Initially the city-states put their disputes on hold until they had driven back the Persian attempt to bring them under control, but when the Persian threat was repelled, the were free to go back to their usual wars between each other with renewed ferocity.

The flight time is approximately 5 hours, 12 minutes.

As being awful.
Odysseus most likely would describe Calypso as a tall, beautiful woman who is smart, clever and a Titan.

Yes, Greece is east of Italy.

There are many different versions of the Greek myth or story of the inventor, architect and craftsman Daedalus and his son Icarus on their escape from Crete. This is a extract from one of my other answers: Daedalus was a famous master inventor and craftsman. He had fled to the island of Crete and started work for King Minos, during around 1325 BC . He created many objects for the King, that appear in various myths and legends. One of his creations was the Labyrinth of the Minotaur. Locked away inside the Labyrinth, a gigantic underground maze of misleading and seemingly endless tunnels, was a horrific monster. It was the Minotaur, a half man - half bull, bloodthirsty creature. It was the son of the kings wife, Queen Pasiphae. Daedalus had constructed a wooden cow for the queen to hide in to satisfy her love for a white bull sent by Poseidon. From this she became pregnant with the Minotaur. When the Minotaur was born, Daedalus built the Labyrinth to imprison the monster inside. The monster was always hungry for flesh, so King Minos demanded that seven men and seven women were sent to him each year. They were sent one by one into the labyrinth to be served to the Minotaur All got lost and were eaten by the Minotaur, no-one escaped. Some people lasted only hours, but some took days to find their way through the pitch black tunnels to the Minotaur This all continued for about twenty years until one brave hero, named Theseus, asked to be one of the seven men sent to the labyrinth; as he believed that he could boldly slay the beast within the maze and escape successfully, sparing the lives of fourteen innocent people each year. When Theseus set foot on the island of Crete he was introduced to the king's daughter, princess Ariadne, they instantly fell in love with each other. Ariadne gave Theseus a sword to slay the Minotaur and a large ball of string to tie to the door of the labyrinth and unroll as he journeyed through the tunnels, then follow to find his way out with. Theseus successfully slayed the monster and escaped the labyrinth, he then fled the lands of Minos with Ariadne by his side. King Minos was furious, not only had Theseus survived, but he had killed the Minotaur and stolen his daughter from him. Minos blamed the outcome on Daedalus for badly creating the labyrinth, so he decided to lock Daedalus and his son Icarus away in the labyrinth (and in some versions a tall tower). Daedalus had built the labyrinth so he therefor knew his way around. His son and him ventured through the tunnels, engulfed in darkness and thick silence. They made there way out and hid in temporary safety...

...This story is a famous Greek legend, but it is only a fictional story. Greek legends were told within the people of Greece as a pass-time. Greek people believed in many gods who lived at the summit of mount olympus. They had a god for almost everything, as a way of explaining everyday happenings that were beyond their knowledge. These gods hated humans. This formed a good base for their stories. There were many parts of these myths that contained forms of fantasy... Daedalus also featured in many other greek tales and myths. In ancient Greek; Daedalus means "Cunning Worker" and so he was, Daedalus was a well known craftsman and inventor,. All statues had their arms stuck stiffly to their sides until Daedalus made statues with their bodies in natural positions and, some people say he even gave them the power of being able to move, it was said that they were so realistic that if they werent chained up then they would run away! Daedalus claimed to be the inventor of the saw. Credit for this went to his nephew instead. Daedalus murdered him in jealousy. Because of this, he fled to Athens to work for King Minos on the island of Crete... ...By Jamie Gerrard Lievesley

There was actually two famous buildings, Acropolis and Parthenon. The Acropolis was also nick-named "The sacred rock". The Parthenon was a temple that the Greeks used to pray in, but now it's crumbled rock. Now you've learnt more than you asked for!

The Gerenian charioteer visited by Telemachus was Nestor, the King of Pylos. Nestor was a born Argonaut who became king after all his siblings and Neleus were killed by Heracles.

It is no that tragic as shown on TV. People still live their lives but by spending less money. Many factories reduce prices also.

The principal religions in modern Greece are Greek Orthodox (98%), Muslin (LT 2%) and Jewish (LT 1%) are all monotheistic. There are a small number of folks who hold to the Ancient Greek (polytheistic) religions. None of their rituals is officially recognised by the Greek state. The biggest bone of contention for those involved is that they are prevented from praying at ancient temples, and struggle to get permission to build their own temples, which in Greece requires the approval of the local Orthodox bishop.

Some of the women in ancient Greece did in certain cities like Sparta, Athens, Minolocia and others but many cities on Crete and other parts of the Aegen Sea, and Turkey did not allow women to have very many rights if any. However the Greecen form of independence was far better for women than any other in the world at that time or for many years afterward.

The major civilization to develop in Greece was the Mycenean civilization.

Like all civilizations, territories are usually decided by physical features that divide the land. Being separated from other territories, even on a smaller scale like city districts, situations cause people to do things differently than others. Different languages, cultures, religions and even physical features can change due to having to adapt to certain situations and influences (example: Charles Darwin noted on the changes between swallows that lived on islands and swallows that lived inland; the same can be said for humans, but usually less physically noticeable)

In Greece, the people were divided by massive mountains, forcing the similar cultured people to "adapt" causing them to become more independent, thus dividing Greece into city-states.

The Mountains in Greece contributed to the rise of the city states because it gave them protection from attack on the low parts of Greece. If your living on a mountain you cant be attacked from the sky because at the time they didn't have planes.

In Greek mythology, it was Poseidon.

Solon was put in control to resolve an impasse between aristocrats and the people, ending debt slavery and produce a degree of equity, retrieving the farmers who had been sold overseas for debt under the old system, but in a fashion which would not bring the aristocrats to reverse their willingness to compromise. This solution was only temporary as the aristocracy tried to maintain its ascendancy and ward off loss of influence and assets. The people then supported established a tyrant (dictator) to represent the interests of the broad populace.

The major Greece is surrounded by three bodies of water namely, the Ionian sea, Aegean sea, and Mediterranean sea. However; the largest body of water covering south of Greece is Aegean sea.
