Ancient Greece

I really enjoy and love learning about prehistoric empires. Greece is very interesting, I would really love to visit Greece someday. There is a voluminous amount of deities and divinity’s the Greeks believe in. I am now going to tell you some of them.
First, I am going to tell you about Greek mythology. There are 14 gods and goddess,7 boys and 7 girls. Zeus is the god of all other gods and of Mount Olympus. Poseidon is another god in Greek mythology, He is the god of the sea. Apprhrodite is the god of love and beauty. Hestia is a virgin goddess and is goddess of family, architecture, and Hearth. Next, another goddess is Persephone who is the queen of the underworld and married to Hades.Hades is the god of the Underworld and the dead. Some more gods and goddess are, Athena goddess of wisdom and battle strategy, Ares god of war and hatred, Hebe goddess of the youth, and Apollo god of prophecy and the sun. All the countries of Greece believed in these gods. There were many countries like Athens, Macedon, Thrace, and Sparta.
There were many countries who always fought for Greece, but Macedon was the only one who ever went on to conquer other areas of the world like Egypt, India, and Europe. The king for Macedon was Alexander the Great who died in his early 30's. Another great power was Sparta, also known as the Spartans. They fought countries like Athens, Rome, and and the Persian Empire. 300 Spartans killed about 500,000 Persians in a 3 day long battle led by their king, Leonidas. The Spartans were later killed, thousands of Spartans came and threw the Persians out of Greece and were praised by everyone else in Greece.
Next, I am going to tell you about some very interesting facts about Greece. One of them is that at the Roanoke Greek festival all the cooks have to cook everything from scratch. Another thing is that the ancient Athenians were the first to develop a democracy. The Athenian children slept in wicker baskets until they are 7-years-old.
Greece was an ancient advancement. It is really interesting to learn about Greece and it's inhabitants. They have a rich and very interesting history. I learned many things about them and found that I like them a lot. I love Greece and can't wait to learn about the Chinese civilization.
