3. The concept of Hellenization, meaning the
spread of Greek culture, has long been
controversial. Undoubtedly Greek influence
did spread through the Hellenistic realms, but
to what extent, and whether this was a
deliberate policy or mere cultural diffusion,
have been hotly debated.

4.  The term "Hellenistic" itself is derived
from (Héllēn), the Greeks traditional name
for themselves.

5.  The death of Alexander the Great in Babylon
boosted its way to form the “Age Of Athens”
Greece
 Epirus was part of the Hellenic Kingdom yet it
was not fully in it’s range
 It wandered off into the “Republic Of Rome”

7. Means city in Greek or Citizenship and body of
citizens. In modern historiography “Polis” is
normally used to indicate the ancient Greek
City-States, like Classical Athens and it
contemporaries so polis is of translated as
“City-State.”

8.  The 1st settlement in Greece
 Being a City-State, they were independent
and creating different cities
 They did not help each other unless in the
threat of their safety
 In the middle would be the temple while
around it was the cultivation or agricultural
land

9.  Two great Polis cities were Athens & Sparta
 Athens was the centre for trade and culture
on the other hand Sparta was known for its
military
 Athens, a democratic Polis
 Sparta, a Military Polis
The threat of the Persians effected the way of
life in Sparta and Athens for if Sparta were to
be captured, it’s strongest units would help
with the conquering of Greece.
