I want to know the answer to the following question:
What helped to advance the Greek way of life beyond its boarders ?
All the background I'm provided with is that "In ancient times, the trading and colonizing activities of the Greek tribes and city states spread the Greek culture, religion and language around the Mediterranean and Black Sea basins, especially in Sicily and southern Italy (also known as Magna Grecia), Spain, the south of France and the Black sea coasts.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
