Rhodes

The Hellenic Republic of Rhodes is a country founded by the exiled government of Greece.
==History==
In 2006, the government of Greece was overthrown by its military thanks to corporate backing. The few members of the Greek parliament that managed to survive the coup managed to flee to the island of Rhodes. The exiled government was supported by Turkey and most other countries considered it the legitimate Greek government. 
In 2016, Rhodes officially declared itself its own country and was accepted as such by the European Economic Community, despite the protests of the Greek military government.

Rhodes is mostly a lawless place, as the government doesn’t yet have the funds necessary to properly control it. Its economy centers around the fact that it’s a free port and a haven for taxes and data. Europa Sur is headquartered in Rhodes, but a resistance movement called the St. John Knights has risen to rid the island of crime themselves.
