Greece againnnn

Greek city state was about the size of a U.S county- each city state often fought one another
Hoplites- soldiers
Phalanx- army formation
oligarchy- small majority of white land owner males dominated the government.
Trirene- war ship
Women could not hold office or vote.
Peloponnesus is the hunk of land barely connected to Greece
Sparta- army
Athens- navy
Golden age- the time when Pericles ruled (460-430 BC)
