House of Glücksburg
The situation became so tense that King George I's sons had to resign from their military posts to save their father the shame of having to expelled them. In September, the "Diadochos", his wife and their children also chose to leave Greece and seek refuge in Germany at Friedrichshof, now owned by the Princess Margaret of Prussia. Meanwhile, in Athens, discussions began about dethroning the House of Glücksburg to establishing a republic or replacing the sovereign with either a bastard son of Otto I, a foreign prince or with Prince George, with Sophia as regent.
