Greece is a country in the south east of europe. It is made up of
mainland greece as well as around 2,000 smaller islands.
Because it is in the Mediterranean, it has warm
sunny summers and mild winters.
many areas of greece are quite mountainous but it
is the beaches that keep tourists coming back to the area. In total, there are 13,676km of coastline
in greece.

in ancient times, greece was not a
unified country. It had no central
government. Instead, the country was split
up into city states called ‘polis’. Each polis had its own
government and laws, although everyone in greece spoke the same
language and had the same beliefs.
How easy do you think it would have been for the
separate polis to communicate with each other?
Can you think of three questions about
the Ancient Greeks you would like to
find the answers to?
