Greece is a small, rocky peninsula. The Greeks were located in Southeastern Europe. Ancient Greece was not a nation, it was a group of cities, states, or nations the size of cities.

About 2,500 years ago, the Greek introduced many valuable items, and ideas, for example, they attempted to explain the world, they wanted to do it through the laws of nature. They also developed a civilization. It influences the way we live today.

They also developed democracy. The people could govern them selves, they didn’t have to be ruled by a king. Just like we live today.
