Well, I'm British, and I have to agree with raja. With current isolationist opinion in my country, it wouldn't be a stretch for the UK to abandon most defensive treaties with other nations within a few years, especially if there is a risk of entanglement in a global conflict.
The Kingdom of the Hellenes


Legal Nation Name:
The Kingdom of the Hellenes
(a.k.a Greece, Hellas)

What Areas Do You Control:
Greece; North Epirus; Macedonia; Bulgarian Thrace; Bulgarian coast up to the border with Romania (see image in hider below)



Flag or Banner:


Political Party:
Orthodox Megali Party (right wing, pan-Greek, monarchist, anti-Islamic)

Type of Government:
Single-party authoritarian state (de facto) with constitutional monarchy.

Military:
5'450'000 (approx.), and rising.

Productions:
Olive oil; wine; textiles; weapons; shipbuilding.

History of the Nation:
After the Greek default in 2015 followed by 'Grexit' from the EU, Greece suffered terrible economic hardship and almost collapsed. In desperation, Greeks turned to extremist parties such as Golden Dawn and Syriza for answers. On the 5th June 2019, the Second Greek Civil War broke out between the socialist and neo-communist left-wing Syriza supporters and the right-wing, fascist Golden Dawn supporters. This almost destroyed the nation, cleaving a second divide between Athens (Golden Dawn) and Thessaloniki (Syriza). However, the socialists were outnumberd and outgunned, and as Athens had gained control of the Hellenic navy, Syriza were blockaded and ultimately surrendered.

The stabilisation of Greece had only just been achieved in the following years by the new dictatorial government when the Third World War broke out. Greece attempted to remain neutral, and, as it had withdrawn from both the EU and NATO, succeeded for the most part. However, rapid rearmament for 'defensive purposes' perturbed the belligerent powers around it. Despite this, however, Greece never formally joined the war, but manipulated the various surrounding powers to bring Macedonia under its sway (the latter being made possible by the chaos dividing the Islamic world, including Turkey). This was done on the insistence of their Hellenism and the sheer incapability of the belligerent forces to intervene.

After the war, Greece experienced a limited economic upturn as the only truly stable nation in the region. It was during this period than Greek troops entered North Epirus and Bulgaria as 'peacekeepers' and to 'protect ethnic Hellenes'. These areas were ultimately annexed, the rump Bulgaria a mere shadow of its former self.

It is thought that Greece would have experienced severe civil unrest and resistance to the annexation if it hadn't been for the unifying factor of opposition to the Caliphate, deemed a grave threat to European civilisation. Golden Dawn, renaming itself the Orthodox Megali Party, made clear its intent to pursue the 'Megali Idea', a pan-Greek ideology seeking to unite all ethnically Greek regions. This included the recapture of Constantinople (Istanbul) and the western Anatolian coast. To legitimise this ideology, the Party reinstated the monarchy, crowned as 'King of the Hellenes' and 'Emperor of Constantinople in Exile', amongst other titles.

Now Greece seeks to expand its new influence into the Balkans and the Mediterranean, and compete with the Caliphate in a defensive manner, currently lacking the military capabilities to directly oppose them. It has also set its sights on Cyprus as a bastion of Hellenism and Orthodoxy that must be united with the rest of the Hellenic world.

Racial demographics:

You are accepted now by the way
Kebab = Turk


I see. I guess Greece could have purged them :3

And thanks :)
^ Looks like I ninja'd one of your claims again. Cyprus is a British possession.


*facepalm*

I may just have to go to war with you to liberate ethnic Hellenes :P
@Iluvatar Also, I would say this flag would fit your nation more. :D



Very well, why not? :)
<Snipped quote by Iluvatar>

3 things,
1st: Cyprus is owned by Britannia,
2nd: You are going 2 remove kebab right
3rd: Get rid of Cyprus from you territory and you shall be accepted.


Is it? How odd. Very well, I renounce all claims on Cyprus.

I have no idea what you mean by 'kebab'. Is this some American phrase I know nothing about?

Sorry!
<Snipped quote by Iluvatar>

While insane wip, it is still pretty good for what you have done. Can't wait 2 see it finished.


Oh... um... :3

If you prefer that idea, then let me know. I can do that instead of the app I just posted if you think it will work better :3
Decided to scrap all previous ideas and try this, as I've been looking into Greek culture a little lately.
