Is this the ideal size Greece should be? or would you go larger?

the Greeks could rule the world
Alexander did...
Greeks are intellectuals, not conquerors. Leave that to the Romans.
At that point you might as well go for North Africa too
Alexander was MACEDONIAN (no.1 country in world), not gayReek.
you should thank your lucky stars every day that the romans found ancient gayreece interesting youtube.com

you are so fucking bratty 'talia is the reason you get to behave this way
this is what barbarians stole from the MED BVLL
they started it
VGH Magna Grecia
silence ghoul
am i wrong? no i am not steer shit with peeps you can spank. not good ol' GERMANIEN
That would be enough
the problem is that the Greeks took the Germanic Rapefugees, it's not like they beat them with some inexistent Germanic superiority, the Greeks simply collapsed for a multitude of reasons
A tip top shape Greek Empire would've gang raped any invader of the time, let's not flourish it
they settled land that wasnt theirs it isnt that hard to understand
Natural borders of Hellas.
They lasted almost 500 years with these borders and deeply influenced every single people they governed, and they were a lot, every single empire or kingdom, even the smallest one, Sweden included, is bounded to have rebels and wannabe usurpers.
What the Greeks managed to do is incredible and basically unparalleled, to turn so many different conquered people to the same cause and make them love it for so many centuries
and even the Germans deeply respected and wanted to imitate the Greeks at the time and after, let's not pretend otherwise and have some intellectual honesty
They settled on empty lands. The savages around them had no states that claimed them.
there was no "empty lands" in europe at that time ofc they drove people off their land
what is incredible is that they rode baba osmans turkish cock for 500 years untill the brits! got a fetish for ancient greece an brought them back on the map, same empire that sacrificed themself to get poland back on the map
Who was in Trapezunt before the Greeks established the city about 3000 years ago?
no fucking idea and i dont care
you have homosexual fantasies involving turkroaches
you live out my fantasy
Being Greek around blonde women?
you arent greek and you will never be greek fucking read my frist post again
ofc they drove people off their land
nigga most people wanted in the Empire and to be citizens
You really think the average person of the time would've preferred living in mud hutts and getting ass fucked every other day by the daily flavour of barbarian raiders or have a stable, safe and wealthy life inside the Empire?
i aboslutely do since citizenship is a very un natural thing for us humans. but you are free to prove me wirong (no a fucking chieftain bending to rome isnt proof for the average joe)
why are you fighting? albanians and turks have been best friends for ever
It's not unnatural. The Bible says we should help our own kind first and the Athenians practiced the one drop rule, since only true Athenians couldn't vote.
i am not fighting
That's the Roman Empire. It was ruled by Central Italians and later Illyrians and Iberians.
no commagene
I can prove you simply by the fact that what people through time consider themselves citizens of changed through time, the people in today's Germany borders weren't exactly always German, but they became a nation and united people through the centuries.
The Greeks conquered with military means, so obviously the initial transition wasn't smooth for anybody, but that's true for every single current nation on this planet too, historically speaking, the Swedes became Germans also by conquering and converting, so to say, other people.
But if after the bloody conquest you actually offer something better yes, in a few generations people will integrate and cooperate.
Of course in times of great instability, where the safety and wealth you promised stops being a thing, and considering that over such a large territory of people that even if Greekized still retained their local cultures, there will be desires of rebellion, nobody wants to be ruled over by a central power that is useless but still asks you to pay taxes, but again, this is true for every single nation on this Earth to this day, half the US would rebel and secede too if the USA central government became similar to the state of the late Greek Empire.
I am rambling at this point, its better if I quit it.
too much words didnt read i won
that's mean but okay, I tried treating you with respect even in through the clear shit posting, but actually I respect your answer, I did indeed waste my time.
im just busting your balls bro but i cant be bothered to read all of that. Caesar dont cry
all good, honestly it's all just shit posting anyway
SPQR
yeah true haha i just dont want to be and asshole. alright i am gonna read your essay, give me a moment
through time consider themselves citizens
and how did this come about? you are avare of romes legend, the rape of the sabine women. change never comes cheap for the persons that lives in that time period. other then this idk what to say you talk so freely about conquered people and moves on
As someone who shares the same ancestors as the Greeks(WHG, EEF and yamnaia pastorlaist) I feel so proud of their accomplishments!
