Ancient Greece

Macedonians and Thracians were greek tribes. The people of Pontous have greek origins but became relevant in the history of greek culture much later (in the byzantine empire). The Parthians were not a greek tribe, their culture was more ''persian''.

Quite big. Since Athens was on the coast. A lot bigger than Spartan's army, since the Spartan army was land-based.

What do you mean by the term abandoned land? Land that nobody is interested to buy or to use? Land that belongs to the state e.g. mountains etc?

The small Greek force at Thermopylae was defeated by the Persian army in 480 BCE.

2. Jupiter and Pluto. BTW, Neptune is not a greek god, he is roman. The greek god for Neptune is Poseiden.

They were great breeders (no TV then to watch). Even their constant wars could not keep the populations of their city-states down.

As the land in mainland Greece was mostly poor and their farms were small, it was not possible to split a subsistence farm up amongst several surviving sons. These therefore became non-propertied, low class and a disruptive element in the community.

The solution was to load them in a ship and send them off to other locations around the Mediterranean and Black Sea coasts, there to seize land, set up new cities, and become part of the propertied class in the new location. Thus the Greeks spread right around the two seas.

The Greeks significantly influenced Rome in various ways, particularly through culture, art, and philosophy. Roman education was heavily based on Greek teachings, and many Roman elites studied Greek literature and rhetoric. Additionally, Greek architectural styles and sculpture profoundly shaped Roman aesthetics, leading to the adoption of columns and grand public buildings. Furthermore, Greek mythology and religion were integrated into Roman culture, enriching the spiritual and civic life of Rome.

The ancient Pan-Hellenic sun symbol was the ancient Macedonian symbol for the Argead royal house. Today it is an official national symbol of Greece used as the symbol for the historical province of Macedonia on the northern Greek peninsula.

No single thing, but among some of the hardest were: - staying focused when I faced negativity - managing negative emotions - making a presentation to executive board - leading a conference call with people from all over the world Some of the easiest have been: - putting in very long hours, working late night - showing up on time for business meetings in Canada, Germany, east and west coasts - coming up with options to solve an issue - the math part In my current job: Asking the boss to fund a $10,000 repair on a piece of equipment.

All Spartan men were required to serve in the army, any other occupation was delegated to an underclass called periokoi. One of their duties was to act as merchants for Sparta.

After the Persian invasion was repelled, Athens led a coalition of cities to oppose Persia from 478 BCE. After thirty years, they cut a peace arrangement with Persia which left Athens in control of 200 Greek city-states it had led against the Persian Empire, and Athens turned this Delian League into an empire of its own, living high off the proceeds.

This led an over-confident Athens into a prolonged war against the other Greek states led by Sparta. This lasted 27 years, and was won by the Spartan-led Peloponnesian League after Persia got its revenge by financing a fleet for the League to defeat Athens' hitherto superior navy.

Phillip II, Alexander the Greats dad, unified the Greek states into one nation under Macedonian Hegemony.

The Roman were inspired by the Greek in all areas of culture.

The limited areas of fertile land in mainland Greece led to nomadic tribes settling on sections of it and forming independent city-states. These fecund peoples living on limited areas of land had to ship out surplus populations to seize new land and form new city-states for themselves. The sea was the highroad, and so they spread over 2,000 city-states around the Mediterranean and Black Sea littorals.

Greeks could be citizens of a city-state, not Greece, which was a word describing the Greek world, not a political entity or country. As a citizen of a city-state (eg Sparta, Thebes, Athens etc) they had political rights and duties in the city-state. Citizens were males over 18 years who had been accepted by the tribe they belonged to.
