western roman empire

[hoplite14gr]

After Great Katia lost her chance-Russia lost the Balkan coastline for ever
After Greece as part of the Byzantine Empire lost control of the water ways, it still atracted the attention of the maritime power of the time.
The Central Empires and Great Britain allowed the creation of Greek state basicaly because they had interest in the commerce and also because thet thought it would be a good idea for a NON- slavic state to keep the Russian fleet penned in the Black Sea away from their colonial lines that is. The Patriarchat in Konstadinopol was indirectly suporte so the Russian Patriarch would not be the sole Orthodox Authority
Evans report (the archaologst remeber?!!) proved the existence of Greek population in what is today Makedonia Ipiros and Western Thrace.
Greece had its greater military success in the 1st Balcan war in 1912. How convenient that that the ports of Thessalonici and Kavala were under the control of Greece which was in the Adant sphere of influence!!
Greece made the mistake to upset Adant after WW1 and instead of occupy the Dardanelles and have Konstadinopole as a free city -thus annulling the Turco-Russian treaties, tried to conquer Anatolia.
Suppored by Lenin after re-ratifing the russian free shipping access treaties ,Kemal was allowed to expell the Greeks from Asia Minor.
Could the next Balcan war be fought because the current Maritme power wouldn´t want to leave the Dardanelles in Muslim control?
In other side of the Aegean they dread such possibility. Time will omly tell and I am still a reservist
Hope I gave some insight.
Kind regards
