They had mild winters and long, hot and dry summers. • MOUNTAINS: Greece is covered in mountains, which act as a natural barrier to protect them from invaders. However, the mountains also created boundaries between the people of Greece. The people were divided geographically, so these geographic boundaries led to the formation of different city-states.
