Ancient Greece had a varied geography of land and sea and a Mediterranean climate. It developed forms of government including oligarchy, monarchy, direct democracy and aristocracy. The Persians wars saw victories over Persia at Thermopylae and Salamis. Athens and Sparta fought the Peloponnesian War which resulted in changes to Athens. Alexander the Great then built a vast empire spreading Hellenistic culture before the founding of Rome along the Mediterranean.
