different cultures and forms of government
B
close ties with each other.
C
one central government.
D
new ways of hunting and gathering.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -They developed their own dialects of the Greek language. Some, like Sparta, developed into a large, complex community. Other city-states built walls around their communities. They formed armies for protection, created their own governments, and collected taxes.
