Diogenes' Lamp
Ep. 23: Bread, Olives & King Constantine, Greek Monarchism: Part 6
Hello Fellow Revolutionaries!
Today we'll be continuing through the drama that was the "Trial of the 6", which will then culminate with the "Execution of the 6", and will then be followed by the Second Hellenic Republic. We'll also get a formal introduction to King George II, a closer deeper dive on relations between the King and Metaxas during the 4th of August regime, which will then land us back at the Axis occupation of Greece and the King's relocation from Egypt to London.
