Ancient Greece was not a country or nation, but a collection of city states with a common ethnic, cultural and linguistic identity. The tough terrain of Greece (including Mt. Olympus, home of the gods) kept them separate and fiercely independent. This competitive environment eventually lead them to there demise. Greece was briefly united as one nation under Macedonian Hegemony under Philip II and then his son Alexander III also known as Alexander the Great.
