That's not unfair, we Germans are just more efficient. ;)

Whatever they say, the whole of Europe and frankly the world owes so much to the Greeks. Without the Greeks we wouldn’t have had the Islamic golden age, and in turn the Renaissance and reformation in europe wouldn’t have happened and Europe would still be in a dark age. Also Rome based most of their culture, literature, highlife, building, academics, etc. on Greece. The Greeks were many a time great, but now they’re just resting.

Yep that works also for southern italy. People get exploited by employers and paid like shit, extra hours of work not paid, no vacation but they say we don't work

they don´t. They spend the most hours at the workplace and that is something different. Most of Greek people have no clue what efficiency is. They just start to work and hope to come to a good end - maybe. This is not true in the hospitality business, but show me some industries in Greece which are working efficiently and deliver a good quality in the same time. Believe me, I tried hard to work with producers from Greece in the middle of the crisis and it did not work out at all.

@Christiana James just saying, I spoke from personal experiences with small and mid range furniture producers who asked for cooperation and delivered (as sample!) low quality and not in time. And please check your stats - Greece was not "flourishing" before entering the EU, they even had to embellish their GNP figures to be accepted.

@Christiana James my Dear, Greek exists not even 200 years (and had a Bavarian king first, which I am proud of) so what "centuries" are you talking about? 1821, you learned that in school, or?

@@mucsalto8377 First of all learn some fucking English and some history before you speak. Second the Nation of Greece was founded after the rebellion of the 400 year slavery from the ottoman empire in 1821. Even though the whole world knows that Greece goes way back at 3000 B.C. Before the slavery every major city in Greece was considered its own Nation. That's why it doesn't appear as HELLAS that's the proper name for Greece. All in all we are one of the most ancient civilizations and we have the greatest history of them all. Ask democracy,maths,theater,architecture. And that's only the surface of the ocean. I hope you learned something today.

@@Staurostheo02 Nope. I did not, as I am very educated about the classic Greece states, the philosophy and their scientific achievements. But I read also the books written by the "tourists" visiting the ruins of Hellas in the 17th and 18th century and how they describe the population at that time. Mostly as illiterate peasants without any knowledge of their history. It is not only me thinking that there is no joint between the culture of the classic period and the Greece of modern times.

Wait...Guys should date a Greek man?LOL we Greeks are not gays(if thats what you mean)thats a well known stereotype coming from the ancient Greece unless if by "guys"you refer to women..because i noticed that Americans use the word "guys"even when they talk to women which is weird as fuck."a American walks up to a group of women"hey how's it going guys..?

Ptolemy336VV it seems you don't know many greek women then

Casie Jms. Actually I know too many! They are not only stunning, they can be very strong, but also very gentle, warm, soothing and kind. They are great. The beauty in Greece's culture is that women and men from regions all over Greece from Crete in the South to Macedonia and Thrace in the North, from the Dodecanese in the East to the Ionian islands in the west, the have all the variations there are from black hairs all the way to light blonde, to black eyes, hazel, green, blue, light and other color eyes. Very diverse and absolutely gorgeous. I have traveled to many countries and most continents, and I have concluded that. You want me to be fully open chart? Yes there are also a part of girls and guys that are overweight, but underneith I have always seen alot of baeuty as I can see that in people's faces. I know one personally. A girl called Artemisia a beautiful name. She was a bit overweight. years later I met her again. She was smoking hot. I have always said years before she was very beautiful. And bam. She came with sheer elegance, and great beauty. So when I say that I love Greece and that Greek women are gorgeous, I mean that based on 30+ times having traveled there, having met countless of people, been in all the cities, in many hangout spots where Greeks party, and so on and so on. Greeks are one of the most beautiful people there are in the world. And that is not only my honest opinion, many articles, charts, and so on say the same and ofcourse the definition and essence of what we hold beautiful today all started in Ancient Greece with Aphrodite that influenced history over the world.

Ptolemy336VV Well I live in Greece so I see more than a hundred every day. I know what I am talking about.

I already knew that. Same goes for me. I traveled all around Greece. I have been there many times 3-16 weeks, which I can perfectly conclude based on observation how things are. I don't need you for that. Also I don't know who you are or where you came from. But if its an Asian country like China, South Korea, India and so on then I can also say that the average beauty there is way lower than that in Greece, based on again many travels and observation. With lower I mean. way wayyyy lower. But then I do feel more sympathy and understanding for your opinion if you where Asian. Many people there have besides from 99% black hairs/black eyes, depending on the region facial morphological features that are for me not something I find exciting. And some regions have on average facial features that I find more exciting as in beautiful. Also the bodies miss many great beautiful curve features while Greek women have in a perfect form. Great ,genuine, not too big in great harmony and balance. I don't like massive curves at all. But I don't like flatness either that you see alot in regions in eastern Asia. Or the somehow strange regions in eastern Asia where women despite being small had massive legs and calves that are way out of proportion. So there are many factors of beauty comes in to play. Then if I would talk about warmth, and inner self of Greek women I could make the most beautiful ode to them. But my point is clear.

Ptolemy336VV Lol I'm not Asian, I'm Greek. Also I see you mean that the Greek women have the 'perfect body'. This is very wrong. As you may know Greece is one of the countries with high percentage of obesity and it can really be seen even while walking down the street or when observing the nutritional habits. Also I agree that Greeks don't have ungly faces but you can't call them extremely beautiful, perfect, and all those things. And only because of the fact that I am Greek I am not going to say that we have the most beautiful faces.

Is he your real dad? If he is you are Greek too. You can't choose your ethnicity.

Pro MN i was coming to tell him exactly the same. American is just what state you belong to, Greek is his ethnicity.

@@timfronimos459 excuse me but all that are sentimental... irrelevant things (i wont use the other word for it). What you are is what you are, and no such subjective factors influence it. In your case since you are of mixed ethnicities, you are just Greek and Irish. 100% of the one and 100% of the other, since belonging to a nation means drawing or not your descendance from it. If people dont recognise thia fact it's irrelevant to it, after all most people dont recognise most facts.

Definitely not with other Turkic peoples but only with Anatolians. And there are reasons for that

​@@tamerofhorses2200 Well to be honest every stereotypes exist bcs there are reasons for that actually. Only solution for that is meeting with ppl or going to those lands. And you are somewhat true about ur first sentence. Stereotypes occurs also because of politics. Europeans has stereotypes against Turkish and Mongol ppl cause of history, politics and media. And they are the stereotypes that always being myths.

exactly and mongolian one is the biggest myth like how do ppl beleive on thatt?

Try the "greek" sub. In a black(rye) bun, put a layer of feta, a few slices of tomato and olive rings, a little oregano and some olive oil and you're set. For an extra "mediterranean" flavour, mix in some sun dried tomato with the regular tomato slices.

hello Dimosthenis! thank you for taking time to write.. are you also an expat, living away from homeland? if so, how is it living abroad and how different food tastes compared to your homeland? ingredients, flavor etc..? i think this is a recipe for sandwich? i will try it, may be first order from restaurant, then prepare myself.. i'd really appreciate if you could suggest me a good greek olive oil brand.. i usually get italan olive oil: "celio" brand.. i would love to try greek olive oil.

No, I live in Greece, but in sandwich joints here, it's the go-to "Greek" sandwich, like having a horiatiki salad in a sandwich bun. As for olive oil, I guess Altis or Elais, or just about any that's from peloponesus(e.g. kalamata, sparta/laconia, messinia etc), crete or lesvos (I live in an agricultural area so I rarely have to buy branded olive oil).

ahh how great to live close to nature, lucky you..! thank you millions for suggestions.. i willl keep in mind to look for by locations.. peloponnese ones.. i can see some on the market where i live... including 2 you mentioned.. thank you thank you Dimosthenis!

@greg oscar it is your personal opinion , and you are being rude .

@greg oscar wtf?

@greg oscar stop drugs

@greg oscar You too 🙃

@greg oscar and I am proud of being a " typical greek woman "

Russians also use opa.

This movie is hilarious!!!!!We are not feeling offended or anything like that.😁😁😁😀

Not a big fan of this movie! I prefer Mamma Mia... xD

DBermudez95 "opa" was used some years ago by a few older people. Not so much though. Also young people never use it nowadays. We say "opa" as a different word for "stop" but it's entirely different in tone. Not "ooopaaaa". But "Opa!". The movie was funny but it was exaggerated in many ways. We see it with a smile.

But our “opa” is like “oh boy/man/girl/woman”

We usually use the exclamation "hoba" in Turkish. Probably kind of similar.

Everybody confuses the lebaneses with the arabs, but we have a bit of lebanese, because you know, phoenicians were our best buddies all those years ago. Still, genetic studies showed that the famous greek gene is stil quite prominent.

I did not know neither of those things...I guess I still am learning more about my culture

You are from the same haploid group. You are genetically middle-eastern, but that is not an insult. :) Middle Easterners are very nice and nice looking! :)

Actually, Greeks look so much like Middle Easterners (not specifically Arabs). They have similar culture and looks.

I heard that Opa in Russia also!! In Germany is Opala!!!

Actually, Greece got it all from Egypt! LOL. Egypt and Greece share a long history of interaction but Ancient Egypt was there far before Greece reached its height of power. They took all knowledge mostly from Ancient Egyptian (Coptic, now) which in turn borrowed from Greek.

❤️❤️❤️❤️Persia

We actually use "opa" when something unexpected happens, ie we drop our phones.

basically "opa" means "stop". When in dancing it's more like "Ooooppaaa"...But nowadays it's not used.

We use it as "ups" too, or like "hold on a second"

my dude, you have no idea how many times people ask me "Are you Turkish" or "Are you from the Middle East" it actually is starting to be a regular thing, might as well get a shirt that says "I'm Greek...and no, I know what you're asking"
