an old greek alphabet is shown in black and white

Borrowing from the Phoenecian alphabet and the Minoan linear syllabary, the classical “Eucledian” Greek alphabet helped advance Greek literature and science (Greek symbols are still used by modern scientists and mathematicians). The modern Greek language still uses a derivative of the classic alphabet, not the latin script most other European languages adopted.

This picture illustrates the Greek language. The byzantine empire had a golden age under Justinian I which had many improvements in match, science, philosophy, etc. They also made Greek language an official language of the state. I chose this picture so that the viewer can get a sense of when they made the Greek language official.
