What if project George Papadopoulos

What if...


What if Greeks didn't exist? Greeks have made a large impact on the
world and if they didn't exist, many things would be different. First of
all, Greeks are the first who used the idea of democracy and also made
institutions that made democracy work. Many of these institutions are
used, today, by many countries across the world.
Greek vocabulary has been very rich and used a lot by many sciences
(astronomy, mathematics, physics, chemistry, medical science,
philosophy, geography etc.). Many Greek words are widely used in all
languages as a base for scientific knowledge and for expanding knowledge
in general.
Also, Greeks constructed Parthenon, in the 5th century B.C., and this
temple is an art symbol and at the same time architectural monument
which is fully adopted to the natural environment. Many public buildings
and national monuments in other countries have been influenced by Greek
architecture.

You're so right, George. I wouldn't want to imagine a world without Greece or the Greeks. Personally, I don't know where I would be without them:)

If Greeks didn't exist, I wouldn't be Greek for sure....
