The video starts with the point that Greece is often viewed as being the "cradle" of European civilization and thought, with so many influences to Greece prominent throughout the world in various cultures and countries. Greece is made up of nine different regions with it's capitol, Athens, being one of the oldest capitols in the world. With around 2,000 islands, Greece is one of the largest sea-faring countries in the world. The country is about 80% mountains, with two main mountain ranges, and Mt. Olympus as the tallest mountain in Greece (also known throughout mythology). In addition, it is one of the most seismically active countries and gets an average of 250 days of sunshine in a year.

Some aspects of Greece culture is the food which includes popular dishes like gyros, pita, olives, and moussaka. Vast majority of the country are made of ethnic Greeks (around 93%), it has one of the eldest populations, and majority of the population is female. Greece history has played a large impact on the rest of the world (the video references classical Greece, Roman Greece, etc. to name a few of its periods), and voting/conscription are required by law. Instead of birthdays, many celebrate "name day" which celebrates the patron of which they got their name from. Many citizens are Christian, have close-knit/large families, and traditional dance and music can easily be found around Greece.
