    In ancient times, the roman empire had the most influence which manifested itself not only in architecture but also in other aspects as well. For instance, the old "greco-roman" wrestling style survives to this day in the modern olympic games.

    Under the Roman emperor Constantine, the empire gained a new capital in Constantinople, and Greece came under the control of the Eastern Empire when the empire divided. The Byzantines were, however, unable effectively to defend the whole of their empire from invaders, and only occasionally did Greece enjoy the security of effective imperial rule. The major beneficiaries of this were the Venetians, who increased their influence in Greece and other parts of the empire.

    The Roman empire which conquered ancient Greece, assimilated their traditions and then brought over Christianity. Although it is true Greece is a Greek OIrthodox country and not a Roman Catholic one, without Romans there woukld be no Christianity at all.
