About 300 years after the Mycenaean civilization crumbled, the Greeks started to join together in small groups for protection and stability. Over time, these groups set up independent city-states. The Greek word for a city-state is polis. The creation of city-states marks the beginning of what is known as Greece's classical age. A classical age is one that is marked by great achievements. - Ryan Higgins (323) 327-6164
