From: Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

 Greece
    orginally consisted of the four provinces of Macedonia, Epirus,
    Achaia, and Peleponnesus. In Acts 20:2 it designates only the
    Roman province of Macedonia. Greece was conquered by the Romans
    B.C. 146. After passing through various changes it was erected
    into an independent monarchy in 1831.
      Moses makes mention of Greece under the name of Javan (Gen.
    10:2-5); and this name does not again occur in the Old Testament
    till the time of Joel (3:6). Then the Greeks and Hebrews first
    came into contact in the Tyrian slave-market. Prophetic notice
    is taken of Greece in Dan. 8:21.
      The cities of Greece were the special scenes of the labours of
    the apostle Paul.
