Detailed explanation-1: -First, about 1100 bce the Dorian invasions brought speakers of West Greek southward, then into the Peloponnese, and finally into the Aegean. Some pre-Dorian Greek populations were expelled from their homes and emigrated eastward to the west coast of Anatolia and to Cyprus.
Detailed explanation-2: -The stories of the Trojan War enforced the belief of Greek mythology. The Trojan War gave the Greeks a better understanding of the gods and goddesses. The war stories encouraged the belief of one common religion.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dorians were distinguished by the Doric Greek dialect and by characteristic social and historical traditions. In the 5th century BC, Dorians and Ionians were the two most politically important Greek ethnē, whose ultimate clash resulted in the Peloponnesian War.
