How does Greek mythology still continue to influence the Western world in literature art architecture and politics?

Greek Mythology influences us in architecture because we adapted most of our building styles from the Greek people. We adapted something call Doric-Style it is basically the use of many types of colomns and a simple unadorned building. We also have the Parthenon, Mt.Olympus (the waterpark), and many other types of architecture to teach us about the Gods, Godesses, and the Titans. Greek Mythology also gave us many of the types of art we use today like mosaics. I don't have a lot of experience in politcs but there are many many books that reference back to Greek Mythology. I hope this helped a little..(:
