In my opinion, the most important legacy of ancient Greece is its politics - to be more precise, I am referring to <u>democracy</u>.
Democracy today is a very important political ideology which originated in ancient Greece. So if it hadn't been for ancient politicians and philosophers in Greece, there probably wouldn't have been even the notion of democracy today.
