YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On 6 April 1941 the German invasion of Greece started. In January Greek dictator Ioannis Metaxas had passed away. Metaxas had established the 4th of August Regime and in the following years he established a totalitarian Greek state, later referred to as the 'Third Civilization'. Yet, although he took inspiration from Mussolini and Hitler he can't be considered a pure fascist. Still you could ask yourself: Why Didn't Greece Join the Axis?
