Sv: Greklands nationaldag!!
Geia sou Arne and thank you!
March 25 is both a national (revolution against the Turks) and religious holiday (Annunciation of the Holy Mother of God)
On 25th March 1821 the Bishop of Patras, Germanos, raised the Greek flag at the monastery of Aghia Lavra in Peloponese, an act that marked the beginning of the war of Independence.
The people of Greece shouted "Freedom or Death" and they fought the War of Independence for 9 years (1821-1829) until a small part of modern Greece was finally liberated and it was declared an independent nation.
