Greece is characterized by many mountains and hills and valleys between them. The valleys are separated from each other with the mountains and often one valley is hard to reach from another. Additionally Greece has many islands. This meant that the the small communities did not have that much contact with the other communities and also, perhaps more importantly, that they could defend their community in case of attack.
