Detailed explanation-1: -Greek city-states were a collection of cities that emerged in the first centuries of recorded civilization. The cities of Greece were unique in the ancient world because they did not coalesce into larger empires like their Sumerian and Egyptian neighbors.
Detailed explanation-2: -Greek city-states likely developed because of the physical geography of the Mediterranean region. The landscape features rocky, mountainous land and many islands. These physical barriers caused population centers to be relatively isolated from each other. The sea was often the easiest way to move from place to place.

They also enjoyed sports, including footraces.
