Greece 3500 Years

About This Novel

3,500 years ago, the Mycenaeans, the Greek ancestors who were good at sailing and commerce, entered the historical stage on the islands and peninsulas of the Aegean Sea. Although they experienced a "dark period" of decline, they prospered again after the 9th century BC and developed into Greek city-states led by Athens and Sparta. Alexander's conquests then created the first "globalization" era. In the 2nd century BC, Rome conquered Greece, but the history of Greece did not end with the decline of the ancient Greek city-states. Instead, the Greek civilization further expanded its influence due to the admiration of Rome, laying the foundation for the development of modern science, art, politics, and law. In the Greek-speaking, Christian Byzantine Empire, classical Greek and Roman culture was inherited and developed, and was the envy of the Western world for hundreds of years. Although the fall of Constantinople at the end of the Middle Ages was lamentable, from the Greek merchants of the Ottoman Empire to the Greek Revolution that led the wave of modern national independence, to modern Greece that dominates the merchant shipping industry, the Greeks are still thriving at the intersection of Asia and Europe.
