Acually the girls did not even go to school in ancient greece.

If we are talking of ancient Greece: mostly the fact that Greece was divided into numerous city-states, who were constantly at war with each other. Internally divided, they were no match for the Romans when these decided to conquer Greece and make it a Roman province in 146 BC.

If we are talking about modern Greece: the fact that Greece for many decades has been spending much more than they made in revenues, borrowing the rest. When they finally could no longer meet their payment obligations under those loans, they had to be 'saved' by their fellow EU-members. Since they have very little internationally competitive industry with which to grow out of the recession, Greece can only cut costs, resulting in massive unemployment, cutting of salaries and pensions etc.

Yes! In a specific instance, to "take advantage of" Hera, Zeus created a thunderstorm and turned himself into a small bird. Hera, taking pity on the bird, rescued it from the rain and held it to herself to keep it warm. Zeus then turned himself back and raped her...what a classy guy.

Greeks were seen as being more sophisticated and cultured than the Romans. It also influenced the form of government in Rome, the buildings in Rome, and their language

You could say that the Romans learned about Greek culture by absorption. There were many Greek colonies in southern Italy including Sicily where the Romans had contact. They also gained possession of these colonies by conquest, just as they gained possession of mainland Greece itself.

It deals with a wide variety of subjects, including political philosophy, ethics, metaphysics, ontology, logic, biology, rhetoric, and aesthetics.

Greece did not have a council of 500 - the Greek world comprised over 2,000 independent city-states each with its own government.

The Council of 500 was part of the democratic system introduced in the city-state of Athens in the later 5th Century BCE. Under the radical democracy, the citizens (adult males) met in fortnightly assembly and made all the decisions. Between meetings, those decisions had to be implemented, so the council was established to do that, and deal with any problems which arose before the next Assembly meeting.

The 500 members of the council was necessary for two reasons: 50 were on duty at any time, 24 hours a day to deal with problems which might arise, so the 500 allowed for 10 shifts. And the reason that 50 were required for a shift is because the Council members were selected by lot from the adult male population and this ensured a mix of members ranging from the dumbest to the smartest. The numbers ensured that there were always some smart people in their ranks who could be relied on to make sensible decisions.

This was a characteristic of the system. Ten members were allotted to collecting the daily handling of public funds to ensure that at least a couple could count properly, and so on through the whole administration system. 500 jurors were usual in a court case to ensure there was intelligent consideration. The exception was the 10 generals - they were elected specifically, as the citizens, who made up the army and navy, didn't want to risk their lives being led in battle by some dummo whose name was drawn out of a hat. And when an important political decision was made in the Assembly it usually had the rider 'the generals to implement' even if it was not a military matter.

After the king solomon experienced all material things upon this earth and it is vain, Therefore he make a conclusion that fear God and keep His commandments for it is the whole duty of man (Eccl. 12:13). So the duties of individual as a christian is to fear God and to keep His commandments for it is the whole of man.

They selflessly stayed to hold the pass until their allies could escape the field and gain sanctuary within the walls of friendly cities.

Philosophy, theatre, education, literature and thought.

Hesiod's Theogony was composed in 700 BCE. The poem was written in Homeric Greek and details the origins and genealogies of the Greek gods.
