There are 6 major arts-music,sculpture,theatre,painting,dance,literature
From these 2 of them(theatre and sculpture) take advance in 2 societies -Greece and India.
While societies as Egipt and Irak had sculptures ,none of them has the sculptures whit so free movements as indian or greek sculpture.Why so? Egipt and Mesopotamia had autoritarian kings whit total powers and sculpture was design to expres the power of rulers.But Greece and India having democratic traditions ,their sculpture is free in movements.
In theatre also India and ancient Greece are the champions.Also because theatre supose mass gathering of people,a democratic spirit.
India have 2 points more then Greece in democratic ruleship.
1-A longer tradition continuity in democratic spirit
2-Lack of rampant slavery as in Greece(were half of population was slave)
