Geography in Ancient Greece

Since the rugged mountainous geography of Ancient Greece covered ¾ of the land Ancient Greece was forced into separate city states. They lacked natural resources, so they used the sea to trade. Greece is surrounded by bodies of water that linked Greece together in trade routes/ transportation. They had to trade to get food and supplies to become a civilization. The weather is always good there so the people from Ancient Greece chilled outside and talked about politics. Temperature in the winter averages 40 and goes up to 80 in the summer.

What caused them to develop into independant city states?
