What Was the Megali Idea? | The Growth of Greece Explained

Описание: What Was the Megali Idea? | The Growth of Greece Explained
What made Greece grow?
Right after securing its independence from the Ottoman Empire, the Kingdom of Greece contained only a quarter of the world's Greeks. The remainder still lived under the Ottomans or would come to be colonial subjects of other powers. That situation was obviously untenable. Amongst the Greeks, the notion of Greater Greece―the Megali Idea―took root and was at the center of their politics for a century.
