Synopsis

At the dawn of its history, who could have predicted that Greece would be the cradle of the most brilliant civilization? Yet, its schools of thought, values and inventions have spread through the ages.

From the abacus, the voting ballot, the Olympics, philosophy, the sciences, vocabulary and, of course, democracy, ancient Greece is everywhere in our modern societies.

The country today sees itself as an extension of that period still sculpted in the stones and etched in the nation's psyche.
