The Kingdom of Greece is a Puppet State of the Italian Empire located South of the Kingdom of Albania, Tsardom of Serbia and the Tsardom of Bulgaria, East of the Duchy of Samos, North of the Kingdom of Morea and the Kingdom of Crete and West of the Ottoman Sultanate.

## History

### Origin

In 1830, after a decade of revolts and uprisings supported by the great powers against the Ottoman Empire, Greece obtained its independence with the signing of the London Protocol. The Kingdom of Greece would expand over the next 80 years from a small rump state barely extruding out of the Peloponnese to uniting more and more Greeks under its nation. The Ionian Islands from the British in 1864; Thessaly from the Ottomans in 1881; Epirus, the Aegean Islands, and Crete from the Ottomans at the end of the First Balkan War; and southern Macedonia and Salonika from Bulgaria at the end of the Second Balkan War. The Balkan Wars made Greece, Serbia, and Romania very close allies, as they had all fought together in the wars.

### World War I

The Greek King Constantine I and his Prime Minister at the time Eleftherios Venizelos were in a nasty three year slap fight on which side to fight on. Constantine I wanted to back the Central Powers, but Venizelos wanted to back the Entente Powers. Constantine I wanted to back the Central Powers knowing if they join the Entente then the Italians will come up with an excuse to invade Greece as Venizelos wanted to join the Entente because Britain (the Diplomatic BFF of Greece) and Denmark (the homeland of Constantine I's father) were on the side of the Entente and he feared the Ottoman Empire on the side of the Entente will invade Greece and conquer it making the Independence of Greece in vain. Constantine was thrown out by Venizelos and his homies as they started to back the Entente in World War I.

Sadly Italy hearing this used the move as an excuse to invade Greece which they did during Germany's takeover of Central and Eastern Europe to create Border States between them and Soviet Rus. The Italians arrested and executed Eleftherios Venizelos and his homies and given the throne to Constantine I who became the King of Greece. Sadly Constantine was forced to give up the Peloponnese Peninsula, the Ionian Islands and the Island of Crete to the Italians who created Puppet States

### After the War

After the War the King was considered a traitor for helping the Italians with invading the country and letting the Italians split up the country. Constantine I had died and his son George II was crowned King of the Greeks.

## Government

The Government of Greece is ruled by the King who is a constitutional monarch who rules as ceremonial monarch who is commander in chief of the army. The King rules with a Praetor who appoints members of the Province Senate as they appoint members of the Parliament elected by the people. These members of Parliament then elect the Prime Minister who is appointed by both the King and the Praetor. The Prime Minister then appoints members of his cabinet as they run the country with the Praetor and King. The Praetor himself is appointed by the King of Italy himself as he runs operations in the capital of Athens.
