The purpose of this thread is to discuss about the invasion of Greece from Ottoman Empire and to an possibile resistance of greek people against this invasion. In Wikipedia, the only information avaliabile is this:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottoman_Greece#Expansion
Expansion[edit]
After the fall of Constantinople to the Ottomans in 1453, the Despotate of the Morea was the last remnant of the Byzantine Empire to hold out against the Ottomans. However, this, too, fell to the Ottomans in 1460, completing the Ottoman conquest of mainland Greece.[8]
While most of mainland Greece and the Aegean islands was under Ottoman control by the end of the 15th century, Cyprus and Crete remained Venetian territory and did not fall to the Ottomans until 1571 and 1670 respectively. The only part of the Greek-speaking world that escaped Ottoman rule was the Ionian Islands, which remained Venetian until 1797. Corfu withstood three major sieges in 1537, 1571 and 1716 all of which resulted in the repulsion of the Ottomans.
Other areas that remained part of the Venetian Stato da Mŕr include Nafplio and Monemvasia until 1540, the Duchy of the Archipelago, centered on the islands of Naxos and Paros until 1579, Sifnos until 1617 and Tinos until 1715.
So, according to Wikipedia, there was no a greek resistance against the invasion of Greece from the Ottomans.
I hope that there will be there someone(greek or nongreek member) who have some historical knowledge about this period of greek history.
I want to make clear two things:
First, my interest is only about the period of time corresponding the invasion of Greece from Ottoman Empire. About the Greece under Ottomans and the liberation of Greece from Ottomans, we can discuss in two other separated threads that i intend to open in the future.
Second, pls no troll.
