Which impact did the mountains have on the development of Greek city states?

People in the mountains worked as sailors and merchants.

The correct option is: They isolated city-states and made them independent.
The mountains in Greece created natural barriers that contributed to the fragmentation of the region into numerous independent city-states. These mountains made it difficult for communication and travel between the city-states, leading to their isolation. This isolation led to the development of unique political and cultural systems in each city-state, fostering independence and a sense of autonomy.
