9:38Now PlayingGreece during World War II; in this video you're going to learn about Greece in WW2, the Greek Collaborationist Government a.k.a. the Hellenic State. When war came to Greece the country was under the 4th of August Regime, led by General Ioannis Metaxas. On 28 October 1940 the Greco-Italian War started. The Greek Army repulsed the Italian invasion. In April 1941 the German invasion of Greece (the Battle of Greece) began. The Greek Army fought along side Commonwealth Forces but the Germans prevailed. Despite stubborn resistance they also achieved victory after the Battle of Crete. The Axis occupation of Greece saw Greece being partitioned. Greece saw a terrible famine (Great Famine). A puppet government (Hellenic State) was installed headed by Georgios Tsolakoglou. From 1943 pro-German Security Battalions were raised. The Greek Resistance in WW2 consisted of many groups: the EAM-ELAS; EDES and EKKA.
