The heirs to Greece, the Romans, further promulgated Greek thought throughout Europe, and from there it spread across the oceans and into the New World.
Greek warriors and colonists spread their culture throughout the Mediterranean and into the Near and Far East. Classical Greece has given birth to some of the greatest artists, philosophers, scientists, historians, dramatists and warriors the world has known. It is difficult to overstate the impact that Greece has had upon Western culture and history.
