Greeks are an ethnic group of long historical duration and significance in the development of Western civilization. This collection is focused on the Greeks in Greece. The Greek language belongs to the Indo-European language family. Greece became over 50 percent urbanized in the late 1960s; about a third of the Greek population lives in Athens. In the rural areas, subsistence agriculture of grain, olives, and vines has generally been replaced by cash cropping. This collection also includes information about the pastoral Sarakatsani of northern and central Greece. Greece is one of the least industrialized European nations.
