Ive noticed that early on in the game, we receive an announcement saying that Stoic philosophy has come into play and your characters can now receive it as a trait. In my philosophy class we've begun to study about Stoic Philospohy, but there was also another major thought going around through the Epicureans... named after its founder Epicurus. The Epicureans focused more on physical science while the stoics with hard logic. I dont know if this is included in the game already, Ive never noticed before, but I thought its just another little thing to throw into the gameplay for those of the greek peninsula.
if you need any info or whatever on it, I have a few sources.
just a note: Epicurus died in 270 bc, which I believe is 2 years into the game play, but his thoughts apparently stuck around for hundreds of years afterwards.
