and see how Greek expansion worked.

看看古希腊是如何扩张的
Let's start with the Aegean Sea.

就从爱琴海地区开始说起
Just almost all the islands in that sea are inhabited by Greeks,

那片海域的诸岛上居住的几乎都是希腊人
mostly by the Greeks that came in

他们大多都是早期的
that first wave of immigrants earlier on,

第一批移民
not colonized during the eighth century and afterwards.

而非八世纪以后的殖民者
But if you go to the north shore of the Aegean Sea,

但如果你前往爱琴海的北海岸
into the region that the Greeks called Thrace

来到希腊人称之为色雷斯的地区
--sorry, before I even get to Thrace,

抱歉在我谈到色雷斯之前
maybe even a little bit of Thessaly

或许该提一下塞萨利地区
which is off mostly west of the Aegean Sea,

它主要位于爱琴海西部
a little bit but not Thrace chiefly,

与色雷斯地区部分接壤
