Greece started as a collection of separate lands where Greek-speaking people lived. The Greeks saw themselves as people who lived around the sea. The Greeks used the sea to travel near and far, as well as for trade. Greece lacked natural resources for buildings, so they used the Mediterranean to trade with other civilizations. Mountains cover 3/4 of Greece, while fertile valleys covered the other 1/4. The mountains separated the Greeks, so they formed they own individual governments. The lack of fertile land made a small greek population that never go over 5 million or so. Moderate temperatures in the winter and summer allowed for outdoor living all year round. The Mycenaeans settled in Greece around 2,000 B.C., and they were heavily influenced by the Minoans. The Minoans had sea trade, a unique art style, and a well established religion. The Mycenaeans fought against Troy for 10 years, and the Mycenaeans collapsed shortly after their victory.
