The Greeks love and appreciate paintings that people share stories that happened long ago like: .Wars .Traditions .Sailors on the sea .A Church .Old Buildings They also have a picture of the palace ruled by King Minos and there's a picture of King Athens and his castle.

The Greeks make Greek songs and they tell a story about ancient Greece. Lots of the songs were made 20 years ago and some people listen to those songs today even though songs were made 20 years back. Greece has wonderful music, LISTEN TO THEM!

In Greece people&nbsp;don’t have a very good education.&nbsp;Most girls wear long dresses, but some people wear clothes like we do.&nbsp;Men wear many different things such as togas, which are long dresses with one shoulder strap.&nbsp;Their life every day is the same as ours here. But some can’t even afford to go to school.
