Effects of Greek Geography

Culture / Religion Mountains & seas  isolation  myths / strange stories of creatures and gods Near sea  Poseidon important (sailors) City-states have different favorite or patron gods

Economy Seas  trading, fishing, piracy Dry, infertile land  need for colonies around Mediterranean for grain  spread of culture / religion to Romans Mountainous, rocky  fruit trees and vines (olives, grapes) wine & oil – main export Terrace Farming – cutting flat portions into the mountain to provide farmable land

Government Isolation between communities (island & mountains)  100’s of separate governments Seas  development of Naval Power (ships) City-state = Polis Competition & warfare for resources

The Greek Polis Polis – “city-state” (many independent) share common culture with other poleis metropolis police politics

The Acropolis – refers to the acropolis of Athens

Athens Direct Democracy – govt. in which citizens have the power to rule & make laws –Council of 500 – proposed and carried out laws (lottery) –Assembly – voted on laws laws (all citizens) Jury trials– speak in your own defense – people from assembly Ostracism (exile of incompetant officials (impeachment) Only adult male property owners born in Athens were citizens (15%) of population – later all men

Compare How does the concept of “direct democracy” compare with our government? How did the Athenian Jury system differ from ours? What are some of the Rights and Responsibilities of a citizen in our country?

Citizen – one who participates in government Have Rights&Responsibilities Voting / owning property defending the polis / serving in govt. paying taxes Rights & responsibilities vary by city-state Women in Athens were not citizens, no political or legal rights

Tyrants Tyranny -govt. in which one person has all the power

“Benevolent Tyrant” Athens believed in the concept of a benevolent or “good” tyrant elected by Assembly in a time of crisis supposed to step down at end of crisis Pericles  was elected to rule and rebuild Athens after the Persian Wars

Sparta

5 Ephors – put law into effect / judges 2 kings – (generals) 28 elders – proposed laws Assembly of Spartan men – vote on major laws, Ephors can overrule them Who in Sparta is most powerful?

Oligarchy Oligarchy – govt ruled by small group of wealthy people Sparta was an oligarchy while Athens was a democracy Think of how this relates to the treatment of education and the inspection of babies as seen in 300.

Others Perioci – free craftspeople / traders – NOT Spartan (conquered Helots – slaves/farmers – provide food for the Spartans 20 helots & perioci : 1 Spartan All Spartan males are professional soldiers **SPARTAN WOMEN – were more free and had more rights than in any other city-state They ran the towns while men were at war or in training.

The Persian Wars

Causes Persia wanted to conquer the Greek city- states The Greeks must join forces to beat back the Persians Athens and Sparta play the lead roles in defense Athens had the strongest Navy Sparta had the strongest Army

Consequences of the Wars Persians are driven from the Balkan Peninsula Athens forms the Delian League, an alliance of city-states that contribute to the defense of Greece. Athens uses league funds to finance reconstruction of its city Athens forces some states to join leading an Athenian Empire

Sparta’s response Sparta creates the Anti-Athens league to stop the growth of Athenian power These two sides will eventually fight one another
