The geography of Greece influenced where people settled and what they did.
Greece's geographic features influenced where people lived because of the high and many mountains made it hard to travel.
They were descended from a warrior people called the Dorians who invaded Greece from the north, and they settled in the southern part of Greece, the Peloponnese, where they founded the city of Sparta.
Ancient Greece had a very big influence on our life today. They were the people who developed the first Democracy. And they passed down the legacy of Science and Technology. If they did not do this we would not have many of the things we have today. Almost everything you see has been improved, advanced and developed in labs and have gone through the long process of Technologically Advancement. They also were a big part on olive oil.

Megara is an ancient Greek city-state. People had a lot of freedom in Megara. There were mountains, such as Mount Lycabettus.
By having everything necessary to sustain large numbers of people like a good climate and fertile soil, so many people began to live there in an organised way/ civilization.
An advantage of the geography in Greece, is mainly climate. The climate has very high temperatures, so as to make the Greeks very much outdoors men. In fact, because of the temperature most of their town meetings and holidays were celebrated outdoors. Another advantage would be that the Greeks were VERY close to sea, so therefor it was easier to grow crops, and have transport. That is why they are actually really famous for ship building. Some disadvantages is that the Greece geography is mostly mountainous and has lots of hills. This therefor made the land for growing crops scarce. These are some advantages and disadvantages of the geography. Hope it is useful!
