Currently got a game going as Greece. I vastly underestimated Greece's passive combined with just one point in the Patronage tree. It basically makes every city state in the game into your bitch if you toss a few gold pieces their way. I've got all but two city states as allies (some as ridiculous as 200/60 reputation) with barely lifting a finger to do anything intentionally. Greece's unique units are pretty bleh, especially past the older eras, but the city-state bonus makes up for it diplomatically.
