What was the main weakness of the Roman empire?

Ancient Greece itself had no real weakness, since each individual city-states makes up for the weakness of another. For example, Spartan had a horrible political system, with oligarchy, monarchy, and democracy all together, yet Athens' democracy more than makes up for Spartan's political weakness. On the other hand, Spartan military make the whole Greece military seem stronger.


How did the Greek empire come to a end?

Greece was never an empire. Greece consisted of little city-states united by a common language and traditions, but they were never united under one ruler. Each city-state had it's own king or queen. You are probably referring to Alexander The Great's empire? Alexander was Macedonian, not Greek, so his was the Macedonian Empire, not the Greek Empire. The Macedonian Empire (which included some Greek city-states) ended when Alexander died in in 323BC - with no heir, the generals fought amongst themselves and ended up dividing his hard-earned empire into tiny chunks. Alexander's Macedonian Empire spanned across Macedonia, Greece, Egypt and Persia. With Alexander being vain, he named cities after himself (Alexandria, etc) so people would remember him.


Did The ancient Greek city-states had colonies both in north Africa and in southern France.?

Yes. Marseilles (Masselia) was a Greek colony, and there were Greek colonies inLibya. Of course, Alexander the great conquered Egypt which made is a Greek colony of sorts.
