The Kingdom of
Greece (
Greek: , Vasíleion tīs Elládos) was a state established in 1832 in the
Convention of London by the
Great Powers (
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland,
July Monarchy France and the
Russian Empire). It was internationally recognized in the
Treaty of Constantinople, where it also secured full
independence from the
Ottoman Empire. It succeeded from the
Greek provisional governments of the
Greek War of Independence, and lasted until 1924, when the monarchy was abolished, and the
Second Hellenic Republic declared. The Kingdom was restored in 1935, and lasted until 1974, when, in the aftermath of a
seven-year military dictatorship, the current
Third Republic came into existence.
