Ancient Greece was located in the Balkan Peninsula in Europe, featuring a landscape of mountains, valleys, islands and archipelagos in a temperate climate near the sea. The geography influenced agriculture, commerce and maritime trade, as Greeks obtained fish, seafood and used the sea to communicate and trade between independent city-states called polis located near water, with each polis having its own laws and public spaces. The two main city-states were Athens and Sparta.

Ancient Greece
Ancient Greece had a mountainous landscape that isolated different city-states and led to rivalry and warfare between them. Two of the most powerful city-states were Sparta and Athens, which battled for dominance over Greece in the Peloponnesian War beginning in 431 BCE. Early civilizations like the Minoans on Crete and the Mycenaeans on the Greek mainland influenced Greek culture and language.
Geography of greece
The ancient Greeks lived around the seas rather than on the land due to the geography of Greece. Three-quarters of the land was mountainous, making it unsuitable for farming or large communities, so the Greeks developed small independent city-states in valleys along the coasts and relied on trade by sea. The climate was moderate, allowing an outdoor lifestyle, while the land was threatened by earthquakes, volcanoes, and tidal waves due to tectonic plate movement.

It discusses key events and achievements such as Hammurabi establishing the Babylonian Empire in 1800 BC and creating one of the first written legal codes. The Phoenicians developed innovations like the first alphabet, which later civilizations modified into modern alphabets, and they expanded trade throughout the Mediterranean region establishing colonies. The Assyrians conquered much of the Fertile Crescent starting in 900 BC through strong military tactics and governance administered through local leaders.
Minoans and phoenicians
The Minoans dominated trade in the Mediterranean Sea from 2000-1400 BC and lived on the island of Crete. They had an advanced and thriving capital city of Knossos with no fortifications. The Minoans traded their high quality pottery and their culture spread throughout the area, influencing future Greeks. Their civilization ended around 1200 BC possibly due to natural disasters. After 1100 BC, the Phoenicians came to dominate Mediterranean trade from their cities in present-day Lebanon. They developed the first alphabet which was adopted by the Greeks and provides the basis for the English alphabet today.

The Middle East- Introduction
The Middle East spans a large territory including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel, Iraq, Iran and Turkey. It has been an important crossroads for trade and religion throughout history as the birthplace of Christianity, Judaism and the origins of the modern English alphabet and numbering system. The geography of the region, including deserts, mountains and coastlines, has significantly impacted its history by influencing the locations of major settlements near water and enabling the spread of trade and religion across great distances. The Arab people have historically lived as nomadic Bedouins or in oasis towns and villages, with trade and camel domestication playing important roles in their societies.

Where is greece_ppt
Greece is a small country located in southeast Europe with over 130,000 square kilometers of land and over 1,000 square kilometers of water. It has over 3,000 islands in the Aegean and Ionian Seas, with Crete being the largest island. Mount Olympus is Greece's highest mountain. Athens is the capital and largest city with over 3 million people. Ancient Greece included mainland Greece and Greek colonies around the Mediterranean, with Greeks living as far west as France.
5.1 Cultures of the Mountains and the Sea
The roots of Greek culture developed from the interaction of the Mycenaean, Minoan, and Dorian cultures. Geography shaped Greek civilization, as the sea encouraged trade while the mountains and lack of fertile land led to small, isolated populations and a need for colonies. When the Mycenaean civilization collapsed around 1200 BC, the less advanced Dorians moved in and the oral tradition, including the epics of Homer, grew as the Dorians left no written records. Myths also developed as Greeks sought to understand life through attributing human qualities to their gods like Zeus, Hera, and Athena.
Egypt
Egypt is a transcontinental country located in both Africa and Asia. It has a hot desert climate and borders Libya, Gaza, Israel, and Sudan. Egypt has many historical and cultural sites to visit along the Nile River Valley including the pyramids of Giza and temples in Luxor. The culture has been influenced by ancient Egyptian, Greek, Christian, and Islamic periods. Popular local foods include kushari, ful medames, and mulukhia. A 10-day itinerary visits Cairo, Aswan, Luxor, Hurghada along the Nile River and includes cruise and sightseeing.
Section 1
Greece's mountainous terrain and location along the sea shaped early Greek civilization. Farmers in mountainous areas grew crops and raised livestock, while coastal communities became fishermen, sailors, and traders who exchanged goods. The Minoans, based on the island of Crete, built large palaces and cities between 3000-1550 BC and became skilled seafaring traders, exchanging goods around the Mediterranean. They developed a writing system. The Mycenaeans then invaded Crete around 1450 BC and controlled the region until 1100 BC, adopting Minoan customs. Ancient stories like the Iliad and Odyssey told of the Mycenaeans and their involvement in the Trojan War.
Ch 5.1 -classical greece
The document discusses the geography and early civilizations of ancient Greece. It describes how the mountainous landscape and surrounding seas shaped Greek life and political divisions. It then summarizes the rise of the Mycenaean civilization around 2000 BC, their fortified cities like Mycenae, and their culture including the legendary Trojan War around 1200 BC. After this, the document outlines the decline of the Mycenaeans and rise of the Dorian Greeks, who lacked writing and learned of the Trojan War through oral stories told by poets like Homer.

The roots of Greek culture developed from the interaction of the Mycenaean, Minoan, and Dorian cultures. Geography shaped Greek life, as the mountains divided the land into regions while the sea and lack of resources encouraged travel and trade. The Mycenaean civilization developed and fought the Trojan War in the 1200s BC, though it later collapsed when the Dorians migrated in around 1200 BC. The Dorians were less advanced and left no written records, while the Greeks developed oral epics like the Iliad and Odyssey and created myths to understand life.
Greece lesson 1 - Geography and Economics
Greece, also known as Hellas, is a peninsula surrounded by three seas - the Ionian, Aegean, and Mediterranean seas. The Greek homeland is mostly made up of mountains and rocky soil that provided poor conditions for farming. As a result, the Greeks relied heavily on fishing, herding, and trade by sea for their diet and economy. The mountainous terrain also caused Greek cities, known as poleis, to develop in isolation from one another. To solve their food shortage problem, the Greeks began colonizing other lands around the Mediterranean where Greek colonies could farm the land and send food back to the homeland.
Flooding Of The Nile Day
In ancient Egypt, the annual flooding of the Nile River was celebrated as the beginning of the new year. The flooding occurred around late September and provided rich soil for agriculture along the river banks, allowing Egypt to develop into a powerful civilization. Without the predictable flooding and resulting fertile land, Egypt would have likely remained a poor desert country.
Cyprus Presentation
The document provides an overview of Cyprus, including its history, geography, population, economy, and cities. Cyprus emerged from the sea after the Troodos Mountains rose, and has been influenced by various cultures due to its strategic location. It discusses Cyprus' diverse landscape, the division of its capital Nicosia, and highlights tourism as the most important sector of its economy. The largest city is Nicosia, home to the author's school in the municipality of Engomi.
Ancient Greece Intro
The Ancient Greeks lived in independent city-states across mountainous and island regions, separated by difficult terrain. While this isolation led to separate political identities, they shared a common language and religion. The sea played an important role in their trade, military, and culture due to the rugged interior landscape. The Mediterranean climate and outdoor lifestyle fostered civic participation and intellectual pursuits among citizens.
Social Studies Chapter 7 Section 1 Power Point
Greece has a rugged landscape with many mountains, making transportation difficult and farming limited. This geography encouraged the Greeks to become skilled sailors and traders. They traded goods like olive oil and pottery to acquire necessities like grain. The Greeks also developed an alphabet adapted from other traders and new forms of culture that would influence Western civilization.
Ancient greece notes
The geography of ancient Greece influenced the development of Greek civilization in several ways:
1) Greece is a peninsula located in southeast Europe with over 2,000 islands scattered throughout the Aegean and Ionian seas, making transportation by sea easier than overland due to the mountainous terrain.
2) The landscape is dominated by mountains covering 70-80% of the land, which divided Greece into separate regions and made overland travel and uniting the regions difficult.
3) The seas surrounding Greece linked most parts and became important transportation routes, making the Greeks a seafaring people skilled at sailing trade and war ships.

The document discusses how geography was a cultural determinant for ancient Greek civilization. It describes three key geographic factors - climate, terrain, and access to the sea - that profoundly influenced Greek culture. The mild Mediterranean climate promoted public life and activities like democracy and drama. Mountainous terrain divided Greece into independent city-states and hampered unity. Lacking natural resources, the Greeks relied heavily on the sea for trade, colonization, and the spread of ideas throughout the Mediterranean region.
Greek civilization
This document provides an overview of ancient Greek civilization from 2000 BC to 300 BC. It covers the history, geography, colonies, culture, city-states, politics and society of ancient Greece. The geography of Greece, with its mountainous terrain and many islands, led to the development of independent city-states. Greek civilization made important contributions to democracy, literature, philosophy, science and mathematics. The Olympics also became a central part of Greek culture and helped unite the Greek people. While short-lived, ancient Greek civilization had a profound influence on Western culture.
Greek civilisation
The ancient Greek civilizations of the Minoans and Mycenaeans developed trading cultures, with the Minoans controlling trade in the Aegean Sea from Crete and the Mycenaeans later dominating Mediterranean trade. Following a dark age, city-states emerged in Greece governed by aristocrats and tyrants before democracy developed in Athens. However, invasions by Persia and Macedonia weakened the city-states and ended democracy in Athens.

- Early civilizations developed in Greece and the Aegean region due to Greece's strategic geographic location surrounded by water on three sides, allowing for sailing and trade.
- The Minoan civilization flourished on the island of Crete beginning around 2700 BCE, with the palace city of Knossos as its center. The Minoans were skilled traders known for exports like olive oil and imports like gold.
- The Mycenaean civilization developed on the Greek mainland beginning around 1600 BCE under influence from the Minoans. They built fortress cities and adopted Minoan artistic styles, writing, and administrative practices. The Trojan War between the Mycenaeans and Troy around 1250 BCE is
Geography of Greece and the Development of Cities
Geography shaped the development of civilization in ancient Greece. The mountainous landscape and isolation of Greek city-states due to surrounding seas led them to develop individually with unique customs and beliefs, resulting in conflicts. Farming was difficult with rocky soil and scarce water, so terracing and crops like grapes, olives, and livestock were important. As the best farmland was limited, Greek cities established colonies abroad and trade by sea grew to supply needed resources, spreading Greek culture.

The document summarizes aspects of ancient Greek civilization. It describes the geography of Greece, including the mountainous landscape divided by valleys that made farming difficult but ideal for raising sheep. It discusses early civilizations like the Minoans and Mycenaeans and a subsequent "Dark Age." It then covers the Trojan War and Homer's literary works that shaped Greek ideals. Finally, it explains how independent city-states or poleis emerged as the most important political units, each with their own government and where citizens participated directly in decision making.
The phoenician cvilization
The Phoenicians were a seafaring civilization that originated in the Levant region in the 2nd millennium BC and were based out of city-states along the coast of modern day Lebanon. They established vast trading networks across the Mediterranean and founded colonies to expand trade. The Phoenicians were skilled shipbuilders and navigators who traded goods like timber, glass, dye, and metals. They developed innovations like the Phoenician alphabet, which influenced other cultures like the Greeks. Over time the Phoenicians came under rule of various empires as their trade power declined. Their civilization was eventually absorbed by others like the Greeks and Romans.
African Civilizations (8:1-3)
1) African societies developed in diverse ways depending on their environments, with some taking nomadic lifestyles while others transitioned to settled agriculture.
2) The kingdom of Aksum in Ethiopia became a powerful trading nation by controlling trade routes between Africa, India, and Europe. It adopted Christianity in the 4th century AD.
3) Starting around 1000 BC, Bantu-speaking peoples migrated southward from their homeland, spreading their languages and skills across much of sub-Saharan Africa over the next 1500 years. Their migrations were driven partly by population growth, environmental changes, and conflicts between tribes.
Greece pp
The geography of ancient Greece shaped Greek life. Greece is a peninsula surrounded by water on three sides, with a second peninsula called the Peloponnesus connected to the rest of Greece by an isthmus. Most of Greece's land was mountainous and unsuitable for farming, forcing many Greeks to establish colonies elsewhere or rely on the sea for trade and food. The earliest Greek civilization, the Mycenaeans, started around 2000 BC in the Peloponnesus and featured gold jewelry, bronze weapons, and fine pottery.

Major empires that rose in the region included the Mesopotamian, Assyrian, and Persian empires. Religious buildings like ziggurats were constructed of mudbricks and featured stepped towers. Palaces built by kings showcased their power through massive scale and variety of architectural styles. Dwellings typically had a portico and entrance at one end of the structure.

7. ancient roman
Ancient Rome began as villages along the Tiber River that united in 750 BC to form the city of Rome. For over 200 years, kings ruled Rome before it became a republic in 509 BC governed by the powerful Roman Senate. Under ambitious generals, Rome's army expanded the republic's territory around the Mediterranean Sea. Roman civilization was supported by advanced architecture like aqueducts and arches, public baths, theaters, and the Colosseum arena. Citizens enjoyed sports, entertainment, and social activities while families, social classes, and country life were defined by hierarchy and economic status.
Final ppt gr
Greek civilization developed under favorable climatic, geographic, and geological conditions. The climate was moderate, and Greece had access to natural resources like marble. The mountainous landscape and many harbors encouraged trade and colonization. Greeks established early forms of democracy and polytheistic religions. They made advancements in arts, literature, architecture, and town planning. Greek cities generally followed an organic layout but later examples like Priene and Miletus used planned grid patterns. Roman civilization expanded the Greek model. Cities like Pompeii combined gridded streets with an irregular footprint and included public forums, temples, and decorated private villas connected by roads and water infrastructure.
Greek Civilization.pptx
Ancient Greek civilization flourished between 1800 BC to 300 BC. It consisted of independent city-states located across Greece, as well as settlements established through colonization elsewhere. The geography of Greece, with its mountainous terrain and many islands, contributed to regionalism and the development of distinct city-states. Greek culture was also influential, making important contributions to religion, art, philosophy, education, and democracy as a political system. The legacy of ancient Greek civilization continues to influence modern Western society today.

It begins with the Near East, covering developments in Mesopotamian, Assyrian, and Persian empires and architectural styles like ziggurats and palaces. It then discusses Egyptian architecture including pyramids, temples and tombs built under pharaohs along the Nile River. The Greek section introduces influences from Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations and the rise of city-states.
Liam's mediterranean trade
The Mediterranean has been a hub of winemaking for over 6000 years, with the earliest evidence found in Georgia and the Caucasus. The Phoenicians developed maritime trade throughout the Mediterranean from 1550BC to 500BC, spreading viticulture and winemaking knowledge to places like Egypt, Greece, Italy, Spain, and Tunisia. This led winemaking knowledge to settle in new lands like Cyprus and Carthage. The Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans further advanced viticulture and established many major wine regions through conquests and colonization. The wine trade prospered until declining after the fall of the Roman Empire, though monasteries helped preserve it through the Middle Ages.
