Best Answer

In culture (theatre, sculpture, buildings), language (new words in the English language are usually derivitives of Greek words, particulary in science - originally Latin was used but it lacked the scope required), religion (Christianity was spread initially in the Greek world), politics (modern politics is based on Greek models - monarchy, oligarchy and democracy).
