GEOGRAPHY Table of Contents Chronological Diagram Back T he study region encloses the upper drainage basin of the Nemea River which flows north into the Gulf of Corinth. The Nemea Valley is one of three valleys defining the Corinthia. The valley to the east is drained by the Longopotamos River and contains the ancient city state of Kleonai. To the west is the valley of the Asopos River. The valley was the site of the ancient city state of Phlious and the modern town of New Nemea (formerly Ayios Yioryios [St. George]). The NVAP region is strategically located controlling entry into the heart of the Peloponnesos. The study area includes the Tretos Pass (photo, below left, and map above). Here the modern national highway and railway line traverse from the Corinthia south into the Argolis. It also includes the Kelossa Pass (photo, below right, and map above), which leads from the Asopos Valley southeast into the Argolid. Thus NVAP geographically embraces a valley and its periphery and thereby enabled the researchers to pursue the goals of studying human settlement and land use within its borders in relation to adjacent areas as well as to regions further beyond its borders.

Geography continued to be a factor in the development of civilization as in Greece. Fact: The mainland of Greece was cut up by short mountain ranges and had no major rivers. Impact: This made it difficult for the people to develop a sense of unity. Many small city states developed. Less initial interaction because blocked by mountains and had no rivers to take them up and down. Fact: The Greek mainland and islands were close to the sea, and the Greeks had many good harbors. The long coastline brought every part of the mainland close to the sea. Impact: This made trade and cultural exchange easier. The Greeks became fishermen, sailors, and traders. A. Interaction and thus unity increased in the later developmental stages as trade increased in the Aegean The sea brought them together as the land could not. Fact: Greek soil was fertile but rocky and the slope of the land along the coast was steep while their were still flat plains areas inland. Impact: The Greeks grew grapes and olives that were indigenous to the area. They also herded sheep on the steep mountain sides but they could not produce enough food to sustain themselves. A. They became fishermen, sailors, ship builders and traders of wine, olive oil and wool.

Geography lesson ideas Greece madagascar china borneo kenya and tanzania ... brazil Greece Coastlines and maritime commerce Based on the eighth chapter of An Amateur's Guide to the Planet, "The Odyssey of Sandstorm: Greece and lessons on national greatness and decline," pp. 147-66. Students will be able: To recognize that seafaring nations share certain charactistics and that sailors hold a different mental map of the world than landlubbers. To learn that poor soils and long coastlines may force a nation into an economic focus on maritime commerce. To understand that island nations often become tourist magnets, with mixed results for national pride. Directions Have students begin this reading adventure with a tale of a rough sail through an early autumn gale in Greece (pp. 150-58). Next read "Poor in land, rich in sea lanes" (box, p. 157). Finally, read "Mass tourism: The fate of Once-Great Powers and islands alike," box, p. 163. Discussion points What insights does the author describe based on her terrible sailing experience in Greece? (That ports such as Mikonos attract sailors from all over the world. That these sailors, including the ones on the Polish ship Zyawa, are familiar with the names of port cities best, rather than just large and famous cities found inland. That Homer's description of Greek waters in The Odyssey in quite accurate in describing the three-day cycle of storms and clear skies.) What characteristics do Greece and Norway share? (Long coastlines, small populations, poor soils.) What global economic activity attracts both Greeks and Norwegians? (Shipping.)

Geography "Greece is located in southeastern Europe on the southern tip of the Balkan Peninsula. The Greek mainland is bounded on the north by Bulgaria, The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, and Albania; on the east by the Aegean Sea and Turkey; and on the west and south by the Ionian and Mediterranean Seas. The country consists of a large mainland; the Peloponnesus Peninsula, connected to the mainland by the Isthmus of Corinth; and more than 1,400 islands, including Crete, Rhodes, Corfu, and the Dodecanese and Cycladic groups. Greece has more than 14,880 kilometers (9,300 mi.) of coastline and a land boundary of 1,160 kilometers (726 mi.). About 80% of Greece is mountainous or hilly. Much of the country is dry and rocky; only 28% of the land is arable. Greece has mild, wet winters and hot, dry summers. Temperatures are rarely extreme, although snowfalls do occur in the mountains and occasionally even in Athens in the winter. Greece is located at the junction of three continents: Europe, Asia, and Africa. Greece's foreign policy, despite its joining NATO in 1952 and its accession to the European Community in 1981, has remained focused on the Balkans and the eastern Mediterranean region. Greece maintains full diplomatic, political, and economic relations with its south-central European neighbors. It provided a 250-man military contingent to IFOR and SFOR in Bosnia. Diplomatic relations with Bulgaria were restored in 1965after a 24-year breakwhen Bulgaria renounced its claim to Greek territory in Thrace and Macedonia. Since the breakup of the Soviet Union, Greece has had good relations with Russia and has opened embassies in a number of the former Soviet republics, which it sees as potentially important trading partners".

Greece - Geography, Landscape and Climate Variety surely must be the hallmark of the Greek landscape. On the one hand, there are high mountains such as the Pindus range, also known as Greece's backbone. Mount Olympus with its summit the Pantheon, is the highest peak in Greece at an altitude of 2,917 meters.The mountains of Macedonia and Thrace are intersected here and there by a few valleys through which relatively small rivers flow. On the other hand, the endless lacework of the coastline produces a series of scenic surprises. It is these heavily indented shores which give Greece such rare beauty, quite unique in the Mediterranean. The marked variety of the terrain above water continues under the surface of the sea. Millions of years ago, the seabed was dry land. Close to Cape Tainaron (Teraro) off the south tip of the Peloponesse, the so-called Oinoussai (Inousses) Pit is 4,850 metres deep and is the deepest point in the Mediterranean. The Greek Peninsula is Europe's southeastern most tip and has an area of 131,944 square kilometers. It consists of mainland Greece ( Attica , the Peloponesse, Sterea Ellada, Thessaly, Epirus, Macedonia and Thrace) and the islands of the Aegean and Ionion seas. Geographically it belong to Europe since it forms the southern most extremety of the Balkan Peninsula. Greece also has a special link with Europe through the

Cultural Life Geography Central Greece At the heart of Greece lies the oracle of Antiquity, Delphi. Running through central Greece is the rugged Pindus mountain range, with a peak of 2.637m (Mt. Smolikas). The dramatic mountain gorges and villages of Epirus rise above the plain of Thessaly, an agricultural heartland bordered by the Byzantine-era monasteries of Meteora. North- Eastern Greece The port city of Thessaloniki , and the mountains and river plains of the north, have played a critical role in the history of South Eastern Europe. The Chalkidiki Peninsula is home to Mt. Athos (the Holy Mountain), a monastic state governed by the Greek Orthodox Church. Eastern Greece The plain of Attica (Attiki) was the site of Europe's first cities. Today, Attica supports nearly half the Greek population. The lush peninsula of Pelion is a land of cascading streams and beaches fringed by forests, and is topped by Mt. Pelion. The best known of eastern Greece's many mountains is
