Greece has a long and eventful history. It was part of each of the
great empires - the Roman, the Byzantine and the Ottoman - that
ruled the region. Greece has strong historical ties with southeastern
and western Europe, Asia and Africa. At the crossroads of so many
civilisations, Greece is gifted with a rich and fascinating
cultural heritage. The country's turbulent history has had
remarkably little effect on the Greek language. Modern Greek is
easily recognisable as the language of Plato.
