Ancient Greece developed along the Mediterranean coast and islands between 3000 BC to 30 BC. The civilization was never unified but shared a common language, religion, and culture. City-states called poleis governed independent territories and included democratic Athens and military Sparta. Athens and Sparta vied for power during the Classical period, fighting the Persian Wars and Peloponnesian Wars. Alexander the Great then conquered Greece and spread Greek culture across his vast empire before it was divided after his death, ushering in the Hellenistic period until Roman domination by the 1st century BC.

Elaborate a timeline about ancient greecealmusociales
The document elaborates a timeline of Ancient Greece from 800 BC to 0 AD. It outlines the major periods and events including the Archaic period where city-states were ruled by kings and Greek colonies were established. The Classical period saw the rise of Athens and Sparta as the most powerful cities, with Athens being a democracy and Sparta an oligarchy. Important figures like Pericles and events like the Peloponnesian War are noted. Finally, it discusses the Hellenistic period after Alexander the Great's conquests and the eventual Roman conquest of Greece ending their rule.
The document provides information about early civilizations, including Mesopotamia and Ancient Egypt. It discusses the emergence of cities and the first civilizations along the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers in Mesopotamia, which consisted of the regions of Assyria, Akkad, and Sumer. It also covers Ancient Egypt along the Nile River and its history from the Old Kingdom to the Late Period. The document describes the social hierarchies, religious beliefs, and architectural achievements of both Mesopotamian and Egyptian civilizations.
Classical Greece flourished between 2000 BC and 300 BC. Key events included the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations, the Trojan War, and the rise of Greek city-states like Athens and Sparta between 750 BC and 479 BC. Greece triumphed over Persia in the Persian Wars, and Athens became a cultural center under Pericles. However, years of war between Athens and Sparta weakened Greece, allowing Macedonia and Philip II to conquer it. His son Alexander the Great then built a vast empire through his conquests of Persia, Egypt, and lands as far as India.
Greek civilization flourished between 1000 BC to 323 BC, originating in areas settled by ancient Greeks like the Greek peninsula, Cyprus, and parts of modern-day Turkey. It was characterized by the rise of independent city-states like Athens and Sparta, which practiced different forms of government. Athenian democracy and Spartan militarism were dominant. Greek culture had a significant influence on Western civilization through developments in philosophy, drama, architecture, science, and more. The civilization ended with the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC and the rise of Hellenistic empires.
The Egyptian civilization developed along the fertile banks of the Nile River around 5,000 years ago. The annual flooding of the Nile provided rich soil for agriculture and transportation. A unified kingdom emerged under King Menes, and powerful pharaohs ruled absolute over the stratified society from Memphis and Thebes. Egyptians mummified their dead and built elaborate tombs and pyramids to prepare for the afterlife judged by Osiris. Their artistic canons emphasized idealized figures in monumental architecture, painting, and sculpture that served religious and political functions. Hieroglyphic writing and the priesthood supported the dominant polytheistic religion.
The document provides an overview of classical Greece between 500-339 BC. It summarizes that this was a golden age centered in Athens after their defeat of Persia. Daily life involved simple houses, food and religion. Drama flourished with festivals honoring Dionysus featuring the works of playwrights like Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides. Architecture advanced with temples like the Parthenon, and sculpture captured human forms. History was documented by Herodotus and Thucydides.

Ancient Greek civilization began between the Ionian Sea and the Aegean Sea in a mountainous region called Hellas. This terrain influenced the development of independent city-states rather than large kingdoms. Two early civilizations, the Minoans and Mycenaeans, preceded ancient Greek civilization. The Archaic period saw the rise of poleis and the spread of Greek culture through colonization. The Classical period was defined by the growth of Athenian democracy and Spartan oligarchy and wars with Persia. The Hellenistic period began with the conquests of Philip and Alexander the Great, spreading Greek culture further and dividing Greece into Hellenistic kingdoms.
According to legend, Rome was founded in 753 BC by Romulus and Remus, who were fed by a she-wolf as infants. Romulus became the first king of Rome. Over the next centuries, Rome transitioned from a monarchy to a republic as the Etruscan kings were overthrown. As a republic Rome expanded through military conquests, granting citizenship to more people over time. Eventually the republic transitioned again to an empire under Augustus in 27 BC, which reached its peak size before declining due to military, economic and social issues and finally fell in 476 AD with the deposition of the last emperor.
Ancient Greece spanned from the 8th century BC to the 1st century BC in the Mediterranean region. It was composed of city-states called poleis scattered across the Balkan peninsula and islands. The natural environment influenced Greek civilization by facilitating sea trade and isolating the poleis, preventing unification. Though independent, the poleis were united by a common Greek language and religion. Greek culture spread widely and formed the foundations of Western civilization.
The toga was the standard garment worn by male citizens in ancient Rome, though it became less common over time due to inconvenience, eventually being replaced as everyday wear by tunics and cloaks; women typically wore a long tunic called a stola along with a shawl-like mantle when going out. Undergarments were minimal, consisting solely of a knee-length undertunic for men and ankle-length one for women and girls.
This document provides an overview of world history topics covered on the SOL review, including early civilizations like Stonehenge, Mesopotamia, Egypt, and river valley civilizations.

Ancient civilizations such as Greece, Persia, and Rome are examined through their governments, militaries, religions and daily life. The rise and spread of Christianity through figures like Paul and events in the Roman Empire are also summarized.
Greece has a long history dating back to Neolithic times. Some key developments include the Minoan civilization in Crete, the Mycenaean civilization on the Greek mainland, and the rise of city-states like Athens and Sparta in the Archaic period. Greece experienced the Persian Wars in the 5th century BC where the Greeks repelled the Persian invaders. The Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta lasted from 430-404 BC and ended the Athenian Empire. Later, Alexander the Great expanded Greek territory greatly through his conquests from 336-323 BC, spreading Greek culture eastward across Western Asia and into parts of India. Ancient Greek society was stratified, with citizens, metics,
Renaissance Europe saw advances in farming techniques, with the widespread use of the plow, crop rotation, and domesticated animals. Society was stratified, with artisans, merchants, priests, royalty, and other specialized occupations. The arts flourished as a rebirth of learning, with art focusing more on depicting the human form accurately. Cities grew large and were centers of trade, religion, and learning, though they also contributed to the spread of disease. Buildings like castles, cathedrals, and universities dominated the landscape, while homes ranged from stone to wood to mud depending on wealth. Changes in thinking began to challenge the Catholic Church's absolute power during this period.
Ancient Greece saw the rise of independent city-states like Athens and Sparta between 1100-300 BCE. Greek culture developed new tools like coins, the alphabet, and democracy in Athens. The Greeks fought the Persians in the 5th century BCE and emerged as leaders of the other city-states. Alexander the Great then conquered the Persian Empire and spread Greek culture throughout the region in the 4th century BCE. Early Greek art included geometric pottery and temples were the first major architecture. Black figure and red figure pottery emerged as artistic styles.

The career of Alexander the Great and spread of Hellenistic civilization are also summarized.
Mesopotamia and Egypt were early civilizations that developed along major river valleys around 6000 BC. They practiced irrigation to take advantage of fertile soils and abundant harvests, leading to population growth and the rise of cities. Writing emerged around 3500 BC to support administration and commerce, marking the beginning of recorded history. In Mesopotamia, powerful empires like Sumer, Akkad, Babylon, and Assyria rose and fell as they conquered the region's independent city-states over millennia, until the Persian conquest in 539 BC. Mesopotamian culture included hierarchical societies ruled by kings, polytheistic religions centered around temples, and advances in arts, sciences, and technologies like mathematics

1. Greece's mountainous terrain divided the land into independent communities and lacked natural resources, forcing the Greeks to trade by sea and establish colonies elsewhere.
2. The Mycenaeans developed in southern Greece and came into contact with the Minoans through trade or war, adopting Minoan culture and writing. They fought the legendary Trojan War.
3. After a period of decline under the Dorians, city-states emerged across Greece with different forms of government, and Athens developed a limited democracy under reformers like Solon and Cleisthenes.
Philip of Macedonia conquered Greece in 338 BCE. His son Alexander expanded the empire greatly, conquering Persia, Asia Minor, Egypt, and Syria before his death in 323 BCE. The empire was then divided among his generals. Hellenistic culture saw developments in realistic sculpture and melodramatic drama. Philosophy schools like the Skeptics, Cynics, Epicureans and Stoics focused on practical everyday life over rational investigation. Science and mathematics advanced, while religion incorporated mysteries from Egypt and Persia. This period expanded Greek influence and set foundations for Rome and Christianity.

Ancient Greece developed between 800 and 30 BC, originating from southern Balkan Peninsula and later spreading to islands and Asia Minor. Greek civilization was defined by independent city-states called poleis, with Athens and Sparta emerging as dominant powers. Greek culture flourished during this time, especially in areas of philosophy, mathematics, drama, and architecture. The Parthenon and other temples on the Acropolis exemplified the refined Doric and Ionic architectural styles using marble sculptures that emphasized ideal human proportions.
The ancient Greek city-states of Sparta and Athens emerged as centers of power due to the mountainous geography of Greece. Sparta developed a strict military society ruled by kings and elders, while Athens gradually transitioned to a democratic system where male citizens could directly participate in governing. Under the leadership of Pericles, Athenian democracy broadened further and Athens became a cultural center, though democracy was still limited. The Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta weakened both cities and marked the decline of Greek dominance. Key Greek contributions to political thought included concepts of direct democracy, participation of citizens in government, and separation of governmental powers.
The Greeks lived in independent city-states due to the mountainous terrain covering most of Greece. They developed into seafaring people and admired beauty, expressing it through their art and literature. Greeks believed that man could achieve great things through rational thought and physical abilities. They made many scientific and mathematical contributions, including democracy, the philosophies of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, and advances in medicine, geometry, and physics. The Greeks sought ideal forms of expression over realistic imitation and made influential works in architecture, drama, mythology, history, and more.
Contribution of Greek philosophers in geographyiqra ali
The document summarizes the contributions of several ancient Greek philosophers to the field of geography. It discusses Aristotle, Theophrastus, Herodotus, Eratosthenes, and Hecataeus. Aristotle studied the form, size, and geometry of the Earth. Eratosthenes calculated the circumference of the Earth and created one of the first maps featuring lines of latitude and longitude. Herodotus made important early observations about geography while traveling. Theophrastus and Hecataeus also made contributions through their writings and maps. The Greek philosophers helped establish geography as a field of study and made progress in measuring and mapping the Earth.

The Greeks believed in a family of powerful gods and goddesses led by Zeus who lived on Mount Olympus. Some of the major deities included Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, Aphrodite, Athena, and Apollo. Greek mythology and religion heavily influenced their culture. Philosophers like Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle challenged earlier beliefs and sought universal truths. The Greeks made advances in arts like sculpture, theater, and architecture that emphasized balance and proportion. During the Hellenistic period after Alexander's conquests, Greek science flourished with scholars like Aristarchus, Eratosthenes, Hipparchus, Euclid and Archimedes making discoveries in astronomy
- Ancient Greek culture included influential philosophers like Socrates and Plato, as well as scientists, playwrights, and historians. The Greeks worshipped 12 major gods led by Zeus and built temples to honor them.
- Alexander the Great conquered much of the known world and spread Greek culture and language before his early death. His empire was then divided among his generals.
- During the Hellenistic period that followed, Greek culture spread widely. New cities were built across the former empire influenced by Greek architecture, art, and philosophy. Major scientists and thinkers further advanced mathematics, astronomy, and other fields.
The document discusses Ancient Greece and its geography, politics, culture, and legacy. It describes how Greece's mountainous landscape and lack of farmland led city-states to develop along the coast and trade by sea. It then covers the origins of the Greek city-state (polis), the rise and fall of Athens and Sparta, key figures like Socrates and Aristotle, and how Alexander the Great spread Greek culture through his vast conquests, leading to the Hellenistic period.
Ancient Sparta was located in a fertile valley in Greece, near the Evrotas River. It had hot, dry summers and cold winters. Spartans followed a polytheistic religion that centered around 12 Olympian gods like Zeus, Hera, and Poseidon. Spartan society was militaristic and emphasized physical fitness. Boys underwent rigorous military training from age 7. Spartan culture did not prioritize the arts or literature. The government was an oligarchy controlled by elite warriors.
Early Greece saw the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age around 1000 BCE. Athens emerged as an intellectual center in the 5th century BCE. This period saw the birth of Western culture and the development of the polis system. The epics of Homer, the Iliad and Odyssey, were created during the Heroic Age and helped establish Greek cultural values. The Archaic period saw the influence of trade with Near Eastern cultures and the development of sculpture, painting, and architecture in the Doric order. This laid the foundation for achievements of Classical Greece.

Greek civilization flourished between 1000 BC to 323 BC, originating in areas settled by ancient Greeks like the Greek peninsula. It was characterized by the development of city-states like Athens and Sparta, which practiced different forms of government - Athens was a direct democracy while Sparta was a militaristic regime. Greek culture spread through colonies across the Mediterranean and influenced later Roman civilization. Notable aspects included advances in philosophy by thinkers like Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, as well as achievements in history, drama, architecture, and medicine.
Greek civilization flourished between 1000 BC to 323 BC, originating in ancient Greek city-states located around the Mediterranean and Black Seas. Key aspects included the emergence of democratic and other forms of government in city-states like Athens and Sparta, the development of philosophy by thinkers like Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, and advances in areas such as architecture, medicine, history, drama, and science that formed the foundation of Western civilization. The civilization came to an end in 323 BC following the conquests of Alexander the Great that spread Greek culture throughout his vast empire.
Greek civilization developed in city-states along the coast of the Aegean Sea. Two major city-states were Athens and Sparta, which developed differently. Athens was a center of art, philosophy, and democracy, with structures like the Parthenon and an emphasis on beauty. Sparta focused more on military strength. Greek culture included epics like the Iliad and Odyssey, dramas, philosophy, and athletic competitions like the original Olympic Games. This document provides background on the geography, mythology, architecture, government, arts, and thinkers of ancient Greek civilization.
Greece is located in southeastern Europe, bordered by Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria and Turkey. Athens is the capital of Greece and some of its notable features include the Acropolis, Parthenon, and sculptures. Ancient Greece is considered the birthplace of democracy and Western philosophy. Some famous Greek philosophers include Aristotle. Athens and Sparta were two powerful city-states that fought against the Persian Empire until Alexander the Great defeated them.

The document summarizes the rise and conquests of Alexander the Great and the Hellenistic culture that emerged after his death. It describes how Alexander, inspired by his father Philip II, conquered Greece and then expanded his empire by defeating the Persian Empire. After his death, Greek culture blended with Egyptian, Persian and Indian influences to form the Hellenistic culture characterized by advances in science, technology, philosophy and the arts.
The ancient Greek society was organized around agriculture, with wheat, vineyards and olives being the primary crops. Trade, especially by sea, was also important economically. Society was divided into two main social classes - free people like citizens and non-citizens, and slaves. Citizens, especially in Athens, had political rights and responsibilities like paying taxes and military service. Women and foreigners had fewer rights. Religion was polytheistic, with major gods like Zeus, Hera, Poseidon and others living on Mount Olympus. Greek culture flourished with advances in philosophy, science, literature and theater.

The document summarizes the origins and political evolution of ancient Rome from its founding in 753 BC to the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD. It describes how Rome was founded by Romulus and Remus and eventually grew into a vast empire governed by a monarchy, republic, and imperial system. The republic collapsed due to internal conflicts and unrest, leading to the rise of Julius Caesar and Octavian Augustus, who transformed Rome into a centralized empire spanning from Britain to Persia. However, by the 3rd century AD, the empire began suffering economic and military crises that ultimately led to the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD.
