Alternative History: WWI

Kingdom of Greece 1900

The Kingdom of Greece is in controlled Turmoil. Just 3 years ago, the Brave and outnumbered soldiers of Hellas lost a war against their occupiers, the Ottoman Caliphate. Though the naval aspect went well.

The Kingdom faces two rival ideologies- The King of Greece, George I, and the Anti-Monarchist Venizelists, who have yet to fully appear as their leader is currently in Crete.

The Kingdom this year pursues propaganda, pursues the same way it won independence- remembering Ancient Greece, its glories, and that we can reattain our might.

Domestic policy: Financial incentives are begun for Greek families to have children. The Government hopes this will increase population, which is at 5 million.

Military policy:

The Greeks were outmatched in this latest war due to inferior Arms. Thus, She purchases the "Spanish Mauser" the M1893. Or at least some similar weapon.

The Greeks purchase 1 Maine class Battleship from USA, to be named Morea. It also purchases from UK 1 Canopus class battleship, to be named Constantine.
