Introduction
Civilization is the gradual change of people or a nation in the ways and style of living base on governance, lifestyles, and social interactions. Classical Greece involved much of the cultures of Ancient Rome where most historical, scientific societies, and academic research the current Greek people largely involves up-to-date research on various issues. This period is associated with the happenings of the 4th, 5th, and 6th centuries BCE where politics, wars, and greed for power are very prevalent. Civilization took a long period as people adopted new lifestyles such as the ones after agricultural economies. The adjustment varied from one place to another, for example, from cities to rural areas. In addition, civilization brought about the movement of people from rural areas to cities. Civilization came along with better methods of doing things such as mechanization and iron processing.
Comparison between the Classical Greece Civilization and Ancient Rome
There is adequate evidence that the Greek civilization formed an important part and basis for the general civilization of the European countries or the subsequent civilizations in the region. Greek and Rome as European countries were two different communities in that the Greek established itself earlier enough and eventually become the first civilized country in Europe, then the Romans utilized this civilization to develop and later an empire evolved in the Roman Kingdom of which the Greeks failed to manage though being strong and more powerful (Streich, 2008).
The Greece civilization involved the emergence of dangerous weapons which facilitated the outbreak of wars among their city-states due to their self-interest amongst themselves, so failed to consolidate and stand up as a united kingdom. This led to the death of many young people in the nation which resulted in one of the failures for them to reach the standards of the Romans of establishing an empire. Romans, on the other hand, utilized some of the Greek Civilization Techniques and with the spirit of brotherhood, they united themselves aimed at acquiring an established Roman identity. In this case, the Greeks may be regarded as pioneers of civilization whereas others as followers of the same.
Comparison between the Classical Greece Civilization and Mycenaean Civilization
Classical Greece preceded the conquest of Greek by King Philip of Macedonian in 338 B.C.E. Unlike some other civilizations in Greek, classical Greek can be distinguished by the confrontation between the Persian Empire and the Greek states as the civilization begun (Duiker, 2008; 74). During this time around, they established artistic standards that were not with any other community and that spread around the Western world. In both, there was an immense use of symbols pottery, artwork, and architectural designs, with statues being used to represent the images of high figureheads of the city-states. Others were used to show distinctive events and occurrences such as funerals and other rituals. Both civilizations are characterized by constant wars among the city-states that result in a lot of suffering for mankind (Mlahanas, n.d.).
Distinctive or significant issues about the Greeks
The Greeks are globally known for their great inventions, scientific research solutions, space studies, and various discoveries ever from ancient times and even in modern today technology. They indeed proved to be the first civilized people in the world.
The spread of Christianity religion was evident in Greece which later started to spread to other nations of the world and this has significantly improved and transformed the lives of many.
