The Olympic Games

The first olympic games were held in Ancient Greece.  They were a HUGE part of Greek culture.  Each city-state sent athletes to compete for them.  Go to this website http://greece.mrdonn.org/olympics.html and read about what life was like for athletes in each different city-state.  Write a paragraph telling which state you would have wanted to represent and why.

    I WOULD RATHER BE AN ATHENIA .BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT SHE GET TREATED BETTER THAN THE OTHERS .SHE WILL HAVE TO DEFEAT THOSE BRITISH SPARTANS AND DO HER PERSONAL BEST .IF I WAS IN THE OLYMPICS AND I WAS HER THAN I WOULD HAVE TO DO MY PERSONAL BEST AND KNOW HOW TO FIGHT WELL. ATHENIA IS CLEARLY THE SHINING STARS OF ALL THE GREEK CITY-STATES.~CRYSTAL.BRUNER~
