New Nation Of An Old People
Is Greece; Most Remarkable
Career In World's History

became a mere province In the
western empire.
THE military ability and power
OF the Greeks died under the Ro-
man yoke. but when the Eastern
Empire was formed with Constan-
tinople az its seat, Greek culture
conquered where Greek arms could
not. and Byzantium became in real
ity a great Greek state. Once more
the territory that, by contraction at
least. can be regarded as Greece,
spread outward until IL held within
its boundaries much Of southeastern
Europe. II Is on reviving the glory
OF this period in Grecian history
that Greek ambition, when II could
live az all. has dwelt.
Snuffed Out TerrftOrially.
The night OF Greece's martyr
dom was not under the Roman yoke
but in the long period from the fall
Of Byzantium 20 modern times.
During that time Greece was all but
snuffed out territorially while the
blood Of its people suffered dilution
from the hordes Of conquerors and
immigrants Of almost every nation
Of Europe that poured In unon it
AIbanians. Slavs. Teutons, Spanish,
French. Venetians. Turks. In 1853
Turkey finally gained complete DOM
nance OF what had been Greece.
Greece. as a nation, was born
again in 1929 as a result OF a most
turbulent war of independence
against Turkey, which was at the
same time a series Of civil wars
among contending leaders and fac
lions. The new Greece which
emerged under the joint protection
Of Great Britain, France and Rus
sia comprised besides the Cyclades
islands and the nearby Pelopon-
nesus, strip Of land about 40 miles
wide across the peninsula north OF
the Peloponnesus. II has been the
constant ambition OF modern Greece
TO push its boundaries outward from
this region which IL considers only
nucleus, until much if not all of
'Hellas irr1denta' should be in
cluded. This ambition has led to a
series OF internal crises and external
wars.
Close 20 Cherished Ambition.
Now. 90 years after the achieve
ment OF Greek independence, the
territory of the kingdom is approx
imately three times as great as
when IL was established. Thanks
70 the great war and the dismem-
berment OF Turkey, Greece now in
cludes much of old Macedonia and
southern Thrace. practically all Of
the islands Of the Aegean, and a
large part of the province Of Smyr-
ma on the coast OF Asia Minor. The
Greek flag flies almost within a
stones throw OF the Dardenelles-
a bare so miles from CONSTANT
nople. Greece has advanced far
toward attaining her ambition.
The modern Kingdom OF the Hell
lenes-as Greece is officially known
has had FIVE rulers. Not one has
served until his natural death or
voluntary abdication. The first
ruler, president OF the abortive
Greek Republic. organized before in
dependence was entirely assured.
was assassinatcd. Otto, price Of
Bavaria, who was gwen the throne
in 1892, was deposed in 1862. Prince
George of Schleswig -Holstein, who
was then called to the throne, ruled
for 81 years but was assassinated in
1913. His son Constantine was de-
posed in 1915 because Of his SYM
pathy for the German cause. The
death Of Alexander. who succeeded
Constantine, was due to an unusual
