The word "Politics" has been derived from the Greek word "Polis" which means affairs of city-states. In Greece to refer to city-states the word, "Polis" was used. The little state of Greece presumably developed from the initial local tribal (ethnic) and cult divides as well as from the country's geographical divisions by mountains and the sea.
