Greece celebrates its 200 years of Independence

200?

Congrats!

May God give you and your people chance to taste true freedom!

So how do you like slavery to unelected idiots in Brussels? Most European countries are not independent, if you havent noticed. EC is basically a branch of CCP.

The British and the Greeks have long been allies and they assisted in this fight against the Ottomans, especially financially.

In 1066 when the Normans, flying the Papal banner, invaded and conquered Britain, many Anglo-Saxons fled to Constantinople where many ended up working in the Varangian Guard: the guard that protects the Byzantine Emperor. After the Great Catholic Schism of 1054, where Catholicism split into Greek Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism, Britain considered becoming Greek Orthodox and look what happened 12 years later.

Get rid of the "Anglo-Germanic crap"? Does that include the car, computer, aeroplane, internet and television?

..and who doesn't love a Yiros or Gyro if that's how you know them. Must be cooked on charcoal. Chips inside the Yiros! Lamb or Pork but don't worry if you are vegetarian.. you can have the chicken.

According to the Smithsonian channel, the poms on the shoes conceal a shoe blade. And the stomping is to let the dead fallen soldiers know that their proud condition continues.

Traditional Greek Souvlakia dont have chips in them
Thats some modern Western bastardization
A proper souvlaki is chunks of marinated lamb on a skewer grilled on a barbeque--none of that gyro crap which is full of gristle

I grew up around Greek migrants and when going to friends houses after school or weekends all us kids were stuffed with great food and treated as part of the family. Australia loves its Greek migrants and vice versa.

200 years independence is something indeed... Who can pin?

ill put it as is.....we fall in darkness for 400 years
all of our scientists escape to florence and thus you have the renascence..what re-nascense mean? the resurection of the ancient greek spirit and civilization
philosophers like erasmus loved the greek spirit and try to push it in dark ages europe, pushing louther to revolution against the complete and unquestioned athority of the pope creating protestantism,again fanatic, but leting sciences and economies to rise and finally creating the today western world
the prove of the resurection of greek spirit and civilization is.....mathematics, physics, theater, geometry, trigonometry, chem,geography, history, philosophy, orthography, grammar and every schientific word in western vocabulary is greek and proves who the inventors are

lets take computer..can you believe that is a greek word?
it comes from comvos=knot because the calculators of and until 1453 was abacus [link to a.scdn.gr (secure)] were the litle balls was knots of colored litle rope so comvu-tor=knots calculator
antikythira mechanism from 87bc was and is an astronomical analog computer who was showing the position of the planets to the captain of the ships in cloudy days and nights
gears and springs in perfect synchronisation from 87bc
german perfect clocks and automations? yea, ok
also for the mechanism to work tou need to keep time (it was the first clock with gears and springs) but also when you have the box in the ship you need a point of direction to aim the mechanism and this point you can have it, in the darkness, only with compass and this proves that the ancient greeks had invent also compass, because the antikythera mechanism could work only with time (because of the motion of the planets) and compass , i repeat 87bc

i could go on and on for hours, greek words, especially scientific, in english language is a book of more than 300 pages, an examle from another book, from page 15

at 1453 the escape of all scientists from konstadinople to florence spark the greek lite to europe and continue the development of the civilization as we was sinking in the darkness

at 1000ac under the great emperor thimiskis we we was 70000000 million greeks when the *whole* europe was around 60000000 million, russia 15000000millions, china around 30000000 millions and usa was not existed, let out africa

in fact at 1000ac we was around the half population of the known world

at 1821, at the revolution and after 400 years of slaughters we had remain 1500000 souls

and today we are 10 millions when the whole europe is around 500 millions, russia 150 millions, china 1700 millions-17 billions, we have a new country usa 300 millions

when the time come, someone have to pay for this

200 years from the Greek Revolution against the Ottoman Empire, the revolution which freed us from 400 years of slavery.

The military parade just ended in the center of Athens. This year because of the pandemic the celebrations had no live spectators.

Truth be told though, at first we had more, 12 of them, but it was difficult to handle all of them so we shrinked them to one.

and edited, so to add, which is 3 in one.

by the way, if you still have doubts, the headquarters of operation for this covid is in Greece, that is why they were all so fond about Greece and that is why the prince that came for the first time and not because his father was Greek or so...LOL!

Australia never liked their Greek migrants
You treated us like shit
While you kow-towed to the Asians--even tho the Japanese killed & tortured Australian soldiers in WW2
After Alexander the Great--Greeks have never tried to push their religion, language or culture on anyone--unlike the rest of the West
You didnt like us--becos unlike other cultures--we didnt bend over to be accepted

Speaking of amazing Greek food, I was fortunate enough to have my Greek landlady teach me how to cook a few things. Lemon chicken and potatoes (lemons grew close enough to pick from the balcony) ; Greek salad, which is SO simple, just cukes, tomatoes, onions, feta chunk, olive oil and vinegar and salt and pepper. Here in the US, they add all manner of stuff, I just prefer it the way she made it. Most restaurants did too.

Pistachios and olives are the BEST in the WORLD, imo. And the way I was taught to make spanakopita, was with phyllo leaves( that's how they translated it to me, anyways) feta and egg, and butter brushed on. She skipped the spinach, and we basically just made smaller feta cheese triangles.

I also appreciated the name days. We were always included as guests, and always thrown a party when it was our own name day.

Cheers to the culture, it was a wonderful experience! It was the 80s, but I won't ever forget it!

The way Greece is treating tourists over the coronahoax is disgraceful you are off my holiday list of places to visit.

Globalist BS re-writing history
Greeks never wore pompons
Only the traitors who worked for the Turks
