    The Greeks gave us the basic make-up of democracy with the freedoms that we share as well as the culture that we currently call Western Civilization. This site describes it well: http://www.arwhead.com/Greeks/ (And, it includes a lot of the science and technology as well.) Good luck!

    Greece influences Roma and Roman influences France, Germany and England so we probably have some heritage from their culture in our daily life
