Greeks

Today in class we were learning more about the ancient Greeks. I learned about Socrates who was one of the best known even to this day philosophers and did a lot to increase the spread of the Greek way and civilization. Also, there were many other icons that helped the Greeks. They all worked to build the Parthenon that was located on the acropolis (a large raised piece of land) so they could see invaders. They developed a great military tactic and were able to defeat many other armies twice and three times the size and sometimes even the ability of them. One of the things that was difficult for them was their location because 3/4 of their land is covered by mountains, so they divided into small nations which they called city states.
