• In ancient times, Greece was not a united country. It was a collection of separate lands where Greek-speaking people lived.

Geography Shapes Greek Life
![Page 5: Greece Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568145d8550346895db2dce6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Greece (or Hellas) is located in the southern part of Europe. It also included approximately 1,400 islands in the Aegean (ih•JEE•uhn) and Ionian (eye•OH•nee•uhn) seas. Lands on the western coast of Anatolia were also part of ancient Greece.
![Page 6: Greece Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568145d8550346895db2dce6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• Greece is separated from the rest of the Europe by a chain of high mountains which form a great wall on the north.
![Page 7: Greece Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568145d8550346895db2dce6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
These land forms were like barriers. Moving over the land was difficult.

• For these reasons, Greeks living in different areas could not be easily united.
![Page 9: Greece Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/568145d8550346895db2dce6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Good farmland covered only about one fifth of Greece and could not support many people.
• Only certain crops could be grown.

• The Greeks had easy access to the sea, however. They became excellent sailors.

• Greece has a varied climate with temperatures averaging 48 degrees
• Fahrenheit in the winter and 80 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer. In ancient
• times, these moderate temperatures supported an outdoor life for many Greek citizens.
