    Another question, why would you say Jamaica was significant to the history of mankind?

    What is the purpose of this question?

    obviously everyone will say Greece, which founded democracy.

  5. EB Said,

    Ancient Greece made a huge impact on America which is evident even today. The ancient Greeks helped to lay the foundations for art, literature, theater, math, science, architecture, engineering and warfare.The ancient Greeks gave America and the rest of the world formulas and theorems. In addition, they provided written records that ended up being the foundation of all that followed in every basic field of study.
    Because of its location, ancient Greece was a melting pot of cultures just like America. Ancient Greece had people from different lands inhabiting the country and they all ended up sharing a common language but were still separate entities with their own gods and goddesses, army and currency. This is similar to America where each state is a separate entity to a certain extent but combined, the states become one nation. In America too, one can find people from many cultures who live harmoniously together while respecting each others cultural and religious diversity.

    Definitely Greece. They founded the arts, the Olympic games and democracy. If it weren’t for the greeks we’d (as in the entire world) still be ruled by monarchs. Or even worse: dictators and military leaders.
