Greece

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.

they traded mostly with Egypt, which gave them and many artists from other centuries idea's for art.

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.

King Philip II but he didn't want to "conquer" Greece, in the sense that this question implies. Philip II united the Greek city-states under his hegemony so that he could lead a campaign to conquer Persia. Whenever a Greek state became supreme, that supremacy entailed the depression of some states and the dependency or subjection of others. As the eminent historian, J.B. Bury writes, "Athens was reduced to a secondary place by Macedon, and Thebes fared still worse; As the hegemony or first place among Greek states had passed successively from Athens to Sparta, and to Thebes, so now it passed to Macedon". After Philip II's assassination, his famous son Alexander the Great would go on to conquer the Persian empire all the way to India.

No, there is no evidence that Joseph, the father of Jesus, had any relation to Greek religion. By all historical accounts, Joseph was a Jew, as was Mary, the mother of Jesus. (And even if you believe, as Christians do, that Joseph was more like a stepfather, since the actual father of Jesus was God Himself, there is still no evidence that the God of the Jews was also involved with Greek mythology.) That said, yes, there are stories in Greek mythology about miracle births, gods who have a son, dying and rising gods, etc. However, Jesus is not part of ancient Greek religious beliefs.

Because the Nile River gave them a water source. Also the desert provided protection because their enemies couldn't survive the journey through the desert without water and the Nile was the only water source by Egypt.
