The coastline of Greece is13,676 km (8,498 miles) long, which is the 12th longest coastline in the world.

Eighty percent of Greece consists of mountains, of which Mount Olympus is the highest, with an altitude of 2917m (9,570ft).

Modern Greece can be traced back to ancient Greek civilization, which is generally regarded as the cradle of western civilization. Therefore, it is the birthplace of democracy, [8] western philosophy, [9] Olympic Games, western literature and history, political science, major scientific and mathematical principles, and western drama, [10] including tragedy and comedy. This heritage is partly reflected in 17 UNESCO World Heritage Site in Greece. The modern Greek state was founded in 1830, after the victorious uprising against Ottoman rule.

Greece is a developed country, with an advanced [11] high-income economy, [12] very high human development index (up to 20 10, ranking 22nd in the world) and continuous high quality of life ranking.
