How did the geography of greece influence its social and political development

Geographical conditions played an important role in the historical development of ancient Greece. Greece is located in the extreme southeast of the Balkan Peninsula and occupies the mainland, which consists of Northern, Middle, and Southern Greece, hundreds of islands of the Aegean archipelago. In ancient times, the Greeks lived on the west coast of Anatolia, present-day Turkey. All this made up the world of ancient Greek policies, city-states. The natural and geographical environment, of course, influenced the development of Greek polises.

The climate was very important in ancient Greece. The climate is Mediterranean, characterized by arid and hot summers, when rains may not fall for long months, but in winter there are a lot of storms, rains, sometimes snow falls. Thanks to this climate, in Greece, farming is possible without artificial irrigation. This, of course, had a huge impact - this is difference of Greece from the civilization of the Ancient East, where collective efforts and, accordingly, centralized power were necessary for the construction of irrigation canals and relational systems, and in Greece it was not necessary: it was enough winter rains, all crops were winter. The rivers did not matter much in the life of the Greeks, since they were small.

In the Greek world and on its periphery, there were deposits of precious metals - silver and gold. Silver was in Attica and in the north of Greece, in Khalkidhiki. In Thrace, present-day Bulgaria, there were gold deposits, and an natural mixture of particles (grains of gold and silver) was mined in the rivers of Asia Minor.
