How did the geography of Greece affect the growth of their economy?

The majority of ancient Greece was a mountainous region not suitable for economies based on large-scale agriculture. (Note that Spartan society in Peloponnesus was an exception to this generalization and was based on a strong agricultural economy.) However, ancient Greece had abundant coastline in the Mediterranean that made it an ideal center for a trade-based economy. In later years, the economies of some city-states (such as Athens) relied more on trade than agriculture, which was the traditional economic base for ancient societies.
