Greece was (culturally) one of the most important regions to Rome. Not only was did it change Rome, by the time the empire collapsed, Byzantium remained for another millennia.
Despite how unrealistic this scenario is, what if the Romans never conquered Greece? How would Europe change from this point on?

I was surprised when I learned that they did. The Greeks held off the entire Persian army (the Spartans in particular were ferocious). But I guess the Roman civil wars were not as bad as the Greek's.
