Detailed explanation-1: -Greece was a mainly mountainous landscape, with the Pindus Mountains and Mount Olympus, surrounded by water on three sides by the Ionian Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Aegean Sea. This meant that the Greek city-states of Ancient Greece were separated by mountains and water.
Detailed explanation-2: -The main mountain chain in ancient Greece is the Pindus Mountain Range. This mountain range flows north to south through most of mainland Greece. The mountains provided two important factors in the development of city-states.
Detailed explanation-3: -Even though the country is famous for its islands and seas, some 80 percent of its landmass is mountainous. At one end of the backbone of Greece are the peaks of Varnountas and Grammos and at the other the Pindos range and legendary Olympus, just north of verdant Pelion.
