Greece
The Greek people are a warm
and friendly people who welcome strangers. They
can be quite demonstrative in showing affection
and visitors should not be reticent in doing the
same. Greece has a male dominated culture but
this is changing slowly. The macho Greek man
still exists but it is now more confined in the
rural areas in comparison to the urban regions.
In addition, reforms in family and inheritance
laws have started to level the playing field for
Greek women.
Greece is a relatively small
country with one third of the population living
in Athens. The remainder of the population is
essentially confined to the fertile valleys and
plains and coastal regions as nearly 75% of
Greece is mountainous and uninhabited. The
political, financial and cultural centre of
Greece is Athens where modern, often haphazard
development sits besides the cultural heritage of
ancient Greece.
