Ancient Greece

They were places to house the gods and conduct ceremonies and make offerings to them.

Olive oil, goat cheese, fish, bread, and wine were their main foods.

They could get land and money(gold or jewlrey) But I'm not so sure, so check please.

Greek culture was not spread by the Peloponnesian War. That war involved the already-spread Greek world which existed from Spain through the Mediterranean to Asia Minor and the Black Sea. The aftermath of the war left the Greek world badly weakened, not strengthened. And it opened the way for the re-mergenc of Persia as a major player, imposing the King's peace to stabilise the eastern Mediterranean, and the emergence of Maedonia as another major player, but that was over half a century later.

Different peoples had different architecture - eg the Egyptians based theirs on a n original pillar of bound papyrus stalks etc etc.

With the Greek peoples there were three main styles - Corinthian, Ionic and Dorian (those who took over the Peloponnesian Peninsula). Being plain people the Dorians produced a plain column, without the acanthus leaves of the Corinthian and the ram's horns of the Ionian columns.

The modern era (including the Enlightenment and Age of reason) and thinkers such as Bacon and Hobbes tried to solve the issues of western civilization through the use of human reason and logic.

Ancient Greece was split into several cities, the main ones being Athens and Sparta. Each city had it's own government. In Athens for the first hundred years it was ruled by a king but soon the Athenians overthrew the kings and created democracy. The leading political figure was Pericles. The time during the democracy was called the golden age of Athens. Soon it's rival Sparta attacked and defeated Athens thus ending this age. the ancient Greeks truly believed in their gods. They had over 20 gods, the king of these gods being Zeus.

The main Greek playwrights whose work has come down to us are the tragedians Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides, and the comedian Aristophanes.

Some fragments, and almost one complete play, of Menander also survive.

The time during which Alexander the Great ruled was notcalled the Hellenistic Age. The Hellenistic Age began with the death of Alexander in 323 and continued until the Romans had fully conquered the rest of the empire in 30 BCE (with Cleopatra VII's suicide)

The ancient Greeks INVENTED math. See "Life of Pythagoras" by Iamblichus, Diogenes Laertius "Vitae philosophorum VIII", Porphyry "Life of Pythagoras" Apuleius "Apologia" and Hierocles of Alexandria "Golden Verses of Pythagoras".

The city-states of Athens and Sparta and their allied cities on both sides.

The Ancient Greeks, especially, (at least in my opinion) were incredibly technologically more advanced than people give them credit. Some things that were invented during their time were the gear, screw, rotary mills, screw press, bronze casting techniques, water clock, water organ, torsion catapult and the use of steam to operate some experimental machines and toys, truss roofs, cranes, tumbler locks, spiral staircase, crossbow, wheelbarrow, showers, light house, odometer, chain drive, watermill, air and water pumps, surveying tools, analog computers, automatic doors that ran on steam, fire hose, vending machine that dispensed water for coins, and clock towers to name a few. They also had a weapon called Greek Fire that supposedly burned even under water and could sink ships during a battle. No one really knows what Greek Fire was. There are references to it, but unfortunately, nothing very defining. I know some of these things sound pretty remarkable, and for their time, I think they were.

Macedonia is known for Alexander the Great and the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedonia that defeated the mighty Persian Empire and spread its Greek language, culture and civilization to the then known world.

Rich people who could afford to buy their own seats, plus the judges for the prizes to be awarded for the best plays.

Much of our current theorems in Mathematics and even branching into Science are a notable thing we owe the Ancient Greeks, as well as many root words for much of the romanic and other languages.

Homosexeuality. And the worship of the Titans. Oh yeah music, math, and philosophy.

There are four different types of Greek columns. They are called: Ionic, Doric, Corinthian. The Doric is just a tall plain pillar with a squared top and bottom. The Ionic is a fancier type of Doric, but instead of a squared top, it has spiraled corners. Lastly, the Corinthian is WAY fancier than any other. It has pedal like shapes all around it.

He was ruler of the city-state of Mycenae in the Peloponnese. The best known is Agamemnon.

There was no Greek empire. The Greek (Hellenic) world comprised hundreds of independent city-states stretching from Massilia (modern Marseilles) through Sicily, southern Italy, Peninsular Greece, north Africa, Asia Minor and around the Aegean and Black Seas.

There was, however, an Athenian Empire, a Byzantine Empire and a Macedonian Empire, all of whom have been incorrectly referred to as Greek Empires.

In ancient Greece ships were built out of wood.

The Persians won the Battle of Thermopylae, led by Xerxes I. But Greece won the war.

The Battle of Thermopylae happened in ancient Greece where 700 men made their final stand against the 300,000 Persians there were 300 hundred Spartans as well as 400 Greek soldiers from other city states.

It is important to note that the Persian Victory came at a very high price. The Thespian and Spartan troops that fought and sacrificed their lives at the Battle of Thermopylae successfully weakened the Persian land forces to such an extent that naval victories like Salamis were able to convince the Persians to retreat.
