On March 25, in
1821, a few brave Greek men started a Revolution against the Ottoman Empire,
that ultimately resulted in the founding of the new State of Greece.
The heroes’ names echo through the decades, still inspiring awe, like the countless statues across the land, along with the battlegrounds: Kolokotronis, Karaiskakis, Nikitaras, Androutsos, Diakos, Papaflessas, Kanaris, Bouboulina, Tombazis; Alamana, Dervenakia, Gravia, Messolonghi, Maniaki, Chios, Navarino.
