Greece

• Minoan civilization
• Mycenaean civilization

The economy of ancient Greece was heavily depended on the important of goods. The need for imports was especially high because Greece's soil itself is relatively poor for growing anything viable. The few products they could grow themselves include olive trees and grapevines.

They ate bread, cheese, olives, fish, figs, grapes, porridge, dates and they drank wine.

The Greek archipelago.

In ancient times, the blending of the Greek and Eastern cultures that was powerfully effected by Alexander the Great's conquests has come to be known as the Hellenistic Age. This blending dominated the Mediterranean Basin for several hundred years until Rome's conquests ushered in a new cultural age.

They used wood for the walls, flooring and for the door. sand was also importantthey would use it for the bottom level for their houses. They would also use stone for their sidewalks.

No, Greece was an Allied power in World War 2. Greece was attacked by Italy & Germany. Occupied by Germany, then liberated when Germany was defeated.

Ancient Aegae (Modern Vergina) was the first capital of Macedonia. It was subsequently moved to Pella. Under Roman occupation, the capital was moved to Thessaloniki. When Macedonia was liberated in 1912 from the Ottoman occupation Thessaloniki was retained as the capital.

Ancient Greece comprised over 2,000 independent city-states. Each had their own form of government which varied over time. The common denominator was that they were often at war with each other and had to include all levels of men in their armed forces in order to survive. Their governance varied over time from monarchy to oligarchy, tyranny and democracy. Within these there were the rulers, the ruled, the wealthy, the subsistence farmers, fishermen, artisans, traders. Those with few or no rights were the poor, foreigners, women and slaves.

Greece and Turkey have been at war for a long, long time. Even when they are not fighting, they are certainly not friends. Greece was part of the Ottoman Turkish Empire until the 19th Century, and a bad feeling remains. During the Korean War, Greek troops and Turkish troops were assigned to different sectors to keep them from fighting each other instead of the enemy.

While there were nearly two thousand Greek states and several Greek colonies through out the ancient world, there was a list of major Greek city-states which included; Athens, Argos, Chalcis, Corinth, Eritrea, Epirus, Macedonia, Massalia, Sparta, Syracuse, and Thebes.

Early on, they had started out as a monarchy. That quickly dissolved as oligarchy (two or more rulers) became popular in Greece. But some city-states became overrun with tyranny and were ruled by false leaders who claimed to help the needy, and usually rose to power by illegal means. Finally, as Greece progressed, tyranny was overthrown, and democracy became the new form of government, as it still is today. People ruled and made decisions. There was a meeting held in Athens, which every adult male, rich or poor, could attend. Although thousands could attend, most wouldn't show up, leaving politics to the professionals. Ones who did voted on who became the new statesman, or senator. They passed laws that the public could agree or disagree on.

The difference between modern and ancient olympics is the technology that was used. Ancient olympics used olden day technology or none at all. No high quality equipment was available and each athlete did not have spikes, skins, leotards, and fancy goggles. In contrast, modern day olympians have all this which effects their performance in the pool, track, field or stadium. Also, modern olympics have cameras and technology that enables the whole world to watch and cheer their country on.

Classical Greece form because after the Archaic period, Greek art, architecture, literature and philosophy boomed. The Classical Period lasted from 480 to 323 BCE and was a time of great cultural development.

Solon introduced trial by jury, established the Areopagus (or council of elders of Athens) as the main consultative and administrative body, introduced new laws (esp covering debt and taxation), remodeled the calendar, regulated weights and measures, created a court for low classes, and offered citizenship to foreign skilled laborers.

Macedonia is a province on the northern Greek peninsula that coincides with the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia.

FYROM has nothing to do with Macedonia. FYROM is a country that was ancient Paeonia/Dardia that was occupied by Slav tribes that invaded in the 6th century AD.

FYROM is actually a pseudo-country and they rename it to Macedonia in order to make claims on the historical Macedonia of Greece.

The land mass of Greece is for the greatest part (80%) covered by mountains. Greece has over 2,000 mostly very small islands: only some 170 are inhabited. Greece is situated on the boundaries of two tectonic plates that move in different directions, making Greece the victim of numerous earthquakes and sometimes tsunamis over the past 2,500 years.

Athens is the best city state because it is on the coast and for people to cross the strip of land separating Athens from Corinth, Athens would charge people making Athens one of the best city states because of it's wealth. Also it was the place in the world to have democracy.

In 499 BC several Greek cities in Asia Minor rebelled against Persian rule. To help their fellow Greeks, a few city-states in mainland Greece sent soldiers to join the fight against the Persians.

The Persians put down the revolt, but Darius was still angry with the Greeks. Although the cities that had rebelled were in Asia, Darius was enraged that other Greeks had given them aid. He swore to get revenge on the Greeks.

By conquering their Capital, Constantinople. Once this fell, the rest fell easily to Mehmed II .

The taking of Constantinople, though, was the actual end of the Byzantine Empire. They lost most of their Anatolian and European territories long before the fall of Constantinople. The Turks had an incredible command of modern military technologies and used fast and decisive naval vessels to attack Greek islands. They also had modern cavalry formations; modern artillery such as cannons, uniforms and flags to prevent friendly fire; generals who used innovative strategies; and incredible siege weapons.
