Citizenship is a status given by a government to some or all of its people. Rome and Athens had notably different views when it came to their policies on this concept. Due to these separate opinions, Rome and Athens each developed a unique system of citizenship, one focused on citizen responsibility, and the other on individual rights. In Athens, citizens prioritized responsibilities such as voting, participating in political debate, and holding office. In contrast, Romans were judged by how he interacted with his family, his neighbors, and his property. Although comparing Athens and Rome is difficult because of the drastic size difference, it is clear to see that Rome had an advantage over

Imagine yourself being a part of an Ancient Greek family. They lived in a wood or mud brick house that had no glass windows. The Ancient Greek family members all played a role in the house. The women of the family had no freedom or rights other than looking after the children and preparing food. The girls of the family were marrying as young as thirteen. The boys of the family had to start school at the age of seven or begin farming; and the slaves’ job was to serve the family and entertain them. Although the family members had responsibilities, the man of the house did as well. The man of the house was in charge of everybody and everything, and whatever he said was the end of the discussion. Tune in and see how their home and lifestyle really was. (BBE Bitesize - KS2 History - Ancient Greece)

Greece is a mountainous mainland along with widely spread islands as shown in source 3 this means that most people who lived there were isolated from other cities. There were hundreds of city-states in ancient Greece depicted in source 3 some small with small populations   and some  big  with large populations.

In the Greek polis they use the temple to show worship for the gods. They also bring offerings to give the gods.

There is a beautiful ocean on the southern side that give great access to ports and provides great beaches. Greece has some bad things too. For example, it is prone to earthquakes.

New Athens is a thoroughly planned island city in the Adriatic Sea, with equidistant historic landmarks of Mainland Greece, the birthplace of democracy, and Italy, the birthplace of the Renaissance. About 600,000 residents inhabit our city of mild winters and warm summers, typical of a Mediterranean climate.

Your post is very nice to read. I read the comments above, and I completely agree with some of the things that were discussed. I find it very unique and strange too that the Greeks live in mountainous terrain. I wonder how they managed to go to places, I mean I know that they probably did not have many modern places like we do now, but they did have to go find food or places they had to be. It must have been hard for them to go up and down the vast areas by foot. It is very unfortunate that they did not have good soil for agriculture like most of the other places did. They had to rely on the sea, I wonder if they knew what vegetables were like if they could not grow crops at all. Socrates was a very intelligent man he was not like many others.

Arguably the most famous and distinctive plant of the island of Socotra in the Arabian Sea, the Dragon’s Blood trees, Dracaena cinnabari, have long held a fascination over those who have lived and worked among them, due to their alien-like appearance and unusual shape.

The medicinal and coloring properties of this resin, along with other dragon trees, was recorded by the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome. Today, it continues to be used in medicines, dyes, varnish and incense all over the world.
