Information About Greece From An Early Notebook
Greece has a population of 2,187,208 and an area of 24,977 square miles. The mean temperature is 64 degrees Fahrenheit and its coastline lies close to the sea or hills. About half the people are farmers and shepherds. The flag features a white cross on blue, and the terrain is rugged with few rivers and many hills. The country is heavily populated for Europe outside Sweden and Prussia, and its armies are noted for Gras guns and paper covered carriages. Only about 70,000 villagers study a non Greek language and roughly 20,000 follow a non orthodox faith. Its current borders were drawn by Britain France Russia and Turkey in 1832 at Constantinople. The typical Greek is inquisitive, excitable, argumentative, eager to learn, and patriotically aggressive, with a climate marked by extreme heat in summer and cold in winter. A travel remark notes March in Morea, with seasons varying across regions without leaving a fifty mile radius.
