History Lesson #4

[136368]

In the Olympic Games, Greeks ran races, jumped, hurled the biscuits, and threw the java. The reward to the victor was a coral wreath. The government of Athens was democratic because the people took the law into their own hands. There were no wars in Greece, as the mountains were so high that they couldn't climb over to see what their neighbors were doing. When they fought the Parisians, the Greeks were outnumbered because the Persians had more men.

After reading your history lessons 1-3, I take it you are a history teacher being amused by crazy answers on tests?

It all makes perfect sense to me... Just like how the Japanese were justfied in bombing Pearl Harbor in retaliation for us dropping the atomic bomb...

I had no idea the ancient Greeks were ever at war with Parisians. My history teacher was remiss it seems.

the Greeks were outnumbered because the Persians had more men.

Isn't that the only way to be outnumbered?
