Where and when did the first states emerge in Greece?

The Mycenaean civilization developed on the territory of Achaean Greece from the end of the third millennium BC. e. At this time, the first states began to be created and the Greek people began to take shape. The first cities that flourished in the territory of ancient Hellas were Athens, Mycenae, Tiryns and Pylos. It was in honor of Mycenae – the political center that the entire period of history was named. These cities actively traded and made cultural exchanges with the Minoan civilization of Crete. Before sunset, Mycenae led the campaign and defeated Troy.
