This recourse put them in a bind. Reliance on their ancient achievements in art, philosophy, rhetoric, science, and war (Persians) was thus of some assistance to getting help in the short term but had unfortunate consequences.
The underside of ancient Greece was downplayed, such as the frequent wastage of its youth in warfare, its imperialism, and its dependence on very many slaves. Indeed no little of what the ancient Greeks produced was clever propaganda in furtherance of imperial aims and standing. Modern greeks asking again for help then suffered all the more from unfair comparisons with their glorified past as it exists in the western mind, comparisons used against Greece, for example, in argument against their deserving forbearance in the recent debt crisis, which crisis is addressed tangentially.
Also western archaeologists and adventurers looted ancient Greek artifacts with the rationale that they were preserving them from the current citizenry. Many remain in the west, in part for the same given reason.
