200 years since the Greek Revolution of 1821

by loloelen

In 5 days, on the 25th of March, we, Greeks around the world, celebrate the 200 years since the outbreak of the Greek Revolution of 1821 and the War of Independence.

Bicentennial, such a key historical event, is both

  • an occasion to recognize the struggles and sacrifices of our people while
  • an occasion to think on the present-day position of our country and its future

All of us, where ever we are, have a historic and moral duty to contribute to this celebration.  That is why I am giving you here the Agenda of the commemorative celebrations hoping to attract your attention and long to learn more about.

By my side, I can contribute, apart from expressing how proud I am for my nationality, by uploading, the next week, posts based only on the colors of my country, thus blue and white!

I hope you will enjoy them and Ι will manage to get a rise out of you! You see, I strongly believe that my country has the richest and most multifarious history in the whole world and merits your attention.

Now why I am categorizing this article to the “joy of traveling”? Because history is a major factor for you to visit Greece.

Literally, my country, can offer you any kind of vacation you may think about and if you need any assistance to planning such a trip, don’t hesitate to contact me.

Note: The featured image is one of the two stamps created by the Hellenic Post Office for this special occasion.

Sending love
