## Overview

The **Greeks** are a Nation States civilization in *Wars of Liberty.* They are a revolutionary nation struggling against its powerful European neighbors to gain recognition. They have kept their naval traits over the centuries and, even though they are constantly advancing, they don't forget where they came from.
The Greeks have access to the Olive Plantations, a more traditional way of gathering gold compared to the other Balkan civilizations. Olive oil techs at the plantation improve their gathering rate even more, eventually making it one of the fastest Coin producers in the game.
Greeks have their unique ship called Pyrpolikon, or fire ship, which is resistant to fire attacks, can damage other ships severely with a fire attack, and trains sailors. Greeks have good navy, artillery, and infantry, but do not have any real edge in cavalry. They are the only Balkan civilization who can Age up at the Dock. Certain Greek cards (outlined in blue) have their effects boosted after a certain politician is used to Age.
## Features

* Can use the Dock to Age up
* Cards associated to politicians; the player can Age-up with a politician and send their respective card afterwards, to get double the effect
* Player's buildings leave ruins that trickle experience after being destroyed.
* Docks continuously muster Fishing Boats. Their limit can be upgraded by researching fishing improvements at the Dock.
* Access to Olive Plantations, a unique plantation which have more upgrades.
* Elite Unit: Klepht (Evzones).

### Unique Units

* Klepht: Early skirmisher that has excellent range and multiplier. Can be upgraded into Evzones through the **Order of the Saviour** improvement at the Town Center.
* Chorophylax: Strong heavy infantry armed with a bayonet to beat shock units. Can only be sent from the Home City.
* Pyrpolikon: Explosive boat that can be trained from fishing boats. It can take out most light ships with a single shot but dies after attacking.

### Unique Buildings

* Fish Trap: Built by Fishing Ships, works like a Mill at sea; as an infinite source of Food for Fishing Boats to gather from.
* Olive Plantation: A plantation of olive trees, which can hold up to 10 gatherers; can be upgraded with extra technologies that makes it the fastest coin-producing building in the game.
