The Mycenaeans constructed a monarchial government that was surrounded by massive stone walls. It is told that they also had a powerful army in which they later conquered Crete to make it part of their empire. They later collapsed in 1100 B.C. causing there to be a difficult period of time. This was known as the Dark Age.]]> 2016-09-07 13:01:12 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122083560 87722 https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122089246 2016-09-07 13:14:40 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122089246 87722 https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122089765 This era of the Greeks was from 500 B.C. to around 338 B.C. It consisted of two wars, one with the Persians and the other was a civil war known as the Peloponnesian War. After the Greeks defeated the Persians, Athens took over. This lead to the creation of a direct democracy coming from the basics of the Athen's government. There were two separate parts to Greece which were Athens and Sparta. Both consisted of two very different governments which quite frankly despised each other. The Athenians were eventually defeated but the major cities such as Sparta and Athens were very weakened not realizing that Macedonia was a growing power which will later cause problems. Western Art has taken a large influence from Greek culture. Greek dramas were also a huge part of their culture. Macedonia later came to power when they took over Greece even though this wasn't what King Philip wanted. He wanted to merge the two kingdoms and work together. Philip died soon after and his son, Alexander, took over at the age of 20 and took over Persia.]]> 2016-09-07 13:15:41 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122089765 87722 https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122096790 This era lead by Alexander the Great was a time when the Greeks and Macedonians spread throughout Asia moving into new land.

Greece had taken over much land and developed many ways to learn. They started the roots for the main Roman government, a democracy. The system has been around for thousands of years and is still in use. Their way of capturing art in sculptures led to many more ways to share their feelings such as poems or philosophy. ]]> 2016-09-08 12:48:02 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122402978 87722 https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122404570 2016-09-08 12:52:14 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122404570 87722 https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122406614 (https://en.wikipedia.org/awesomsoccergoale)]]> 2016-09-08 12:57:43 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122406614 87722 https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122636858 The Greeks had a heavy influence on Western Asia and Europe, so this had to include Rome. Rome had a government based off of the Greek democracy but it was a republic, which is slightly different. Also The Romans liked to put on shows or dramas in theaters as the Greeks did. The cultures also shared some similarities such as writing poems and building sculptures. ]]> 2016-09-09 03:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122636858 87722 https://padlet.com/87722/uht04kzucxrg/wish/122683968 Christianity began in Hellenistic times when Rome had taken over a place called Judea.
