In Ancient Greece the people take their culture, society, economy, and history very seriously. One of the most important things in Ancient Greece's culture is religion. People of Ancient Greece are very proud of their culture. Holidays and festivals are taken very seriously. In Ancient Greece society Men have to be involved in theater if they were not involved in the military or politics. The plays acted out by the male Grecians had to involve gods or politics but came in many genres. In Ancient Greece economy many people depended on agriculture. The Greeks also were highly involved in trading in which they gave profit to the farmers. In Ancient Greece History many important things have happened. One of the most important things that happened in Ancient Greece's history is the Trojan War. The Trojan War started because the Greeks decided to use a strategy of war to seduce the opponent. The strategy with the wooden horse was a very smart plan. The Greeks hid in a hollow wooden horse where they jumped out in a surprise attack against the opponent, killing them all.

Sophocles wrote around 123 plays for the Arthenian theatre, and won 24 festivals. He placed second in every festival that he did not win.
Aeschylus
Aeschylus had a brother named Cynegeirus but he died fighting at Marathon. Aeschylus was the first of the three classical playwrights of 5th century Athens. He wrote between 60 and 90 plays. His first win at the drama festival (city Dionysia) came in 484 BCE. He was prosecuted for revealing the mysteries of Eleusis in one of his plays, but he was proven innocent. Aeschylus was driven from the city by growing social and political unrest.
Euripides
Euripides wrote 92 plays, but most people know only 80 of them. He was the last of Athens' great tragic poets. He took part in the sophist movement and lived as a recluse. Which is a person that does not go out in the public. Euripides left Athens in 408 BCE at request of King Archelaus of Macedon.
