Greece is situated off a total of 5 seas; the Aegean Sea, the Ionian Sea, the Myrtoa Sea, the Sea of Crete, and the Mediterranean Sea.


Greek is also popularly used in conjunction with history. Greek history is the history of the Greek people. The Greek people have inhabited the area of the modern state of Greece since the around 1900 BC when the Mycenaeans (the first Greek-speaking tribe) invaded the area. Greek history spans the Neolithic and Bronze Ages. The Ancient Greece, Byzantine Empire, and Ottomon Rule periods are of significant interest. There is an interesting blog by Greekgeek who explains his tour of places of interest relating to Ancient Greece.


Greek tourism provides significant revenue for the Greek people. Holidays in Greece are the fourth most popular destination in the European Union.
