3/11 Class

Today in class we learned that Greece was basically right in the middle of the Medditerian sea. There are 2,000 islands there and most of them are Greece's. Greece ruled almost all of the Mediterian. Greece was also popular because they grew and used olive oil which nobody had so they got attention and they traded a lot but it was hard to transport it because Greece was three fourth mountains. And with a horse and buggy up a mountain is pretty hard so they went in the sea. But all of those islands it was very hard to navigate around them so either way it was hard to transport olive oil and other goods. The Greeks had there own mythology were Zeus was the king and lived on Mount Olympus were Hera was his wife and Athena was his daughter who was the protecter of the cities like Athens and other big cities around Greece.
