The geography of Eliacmeans was founded around foreign and domestic affairs. Eliacmeans traded with others and needed to have the perfect climate and position to continue making the trades and what was traded.
Who: There was no one around the city-state so no there was no competition for space or land, which would have been difficult due to the precious materials the space grew. Athens was not far away which supported the trading system of olives and oil; that Athens could not grow.
What: The city-state is located on a moutainest terrain with a warm climate all throughout the year to help grow the olives. Materials such as marble were plentiful in the area, to help make monuments and sacred buildings, and silver was near by so that when Eliacmeans traded their olives and and other goods, they could also provide silver to trade that many city-states valued.
Where: Eliacmeans is located on a pennisula in Greece, close to Euboea and Pelion who could not grow olives, so those two city-states were major trading places. It was also fairly close to Eliacmean's allies, Athens. *Learn more about allies and rivals in the Foreign Affairs tab*
Why: All of the conditions help with trading and the mountains provided a grand view of the land below to see if anyone was trying to attack. If anyone were to attack, chances were that the Eliacmeans would see them first and then would be ready to defend the city-state without worrying about suprise attacks.
