In ancient times, geography had a powerful effect upon the development of the Greek city-states. The dominance of water (the Aegean Sea and connected bodies of water) was one geographic influence, as it forced the Greeks to become experts at seafaring. The rugged terrain of the Greek peninsula was another influence, as it separated Greek societies and thereby encouraged the independence and variety that gave rise to such world-changing Greek cultures as the Athenian, the Macedonian and the Spartan.
