Athens is the capital and the largest city of Greece. Its current population is registered as 3.2 million however the population is expected to be around 5 Million. It is hard to believe that in antiquity, Athens started out as a small Mycenaean colony but slowly became the city it is today, a city in fact that has been designed and influenced by not only the Greeks themselves but by the Ottoman, Roman, and Byzantine civilizations.
Currently Athens is the political and economical center of modern Greece. Its a city where nearly half of the countries total population call home!
