    Occupation
    Greek revolutionary leader, politician
    Kanellos Deligiannis
    (
    Greek
    :
    Κανέλλος Δεληγιάννης
    ; 1780–1862) was a
    Greek
    magnate
    from the
    Morea
    and the son of
    Ioannis Deligiannis
    . He was one of the main organizers of the
    Greek War of Independence
    and a politician in the independent
    Kingdom of Greece
    .
    Biography
    He was born in
    Langadia
    ,
    Gortynia
    , and was a son of one of the most important magnates in the
    Peloponnese
    (
    Morea
    ), Ioannis Deligiannis. Due to the prominence of his family in the area, he played an important role in the
    Greek Revolution
    .
    He fought at
    Missolonghi
    ,
    Peta
    ,
    Tripolitsa
    , and elsewhere. During the
    Greek civil wars of 1824–1825
    , he joined with many chiefs of the Peloponnese and
    Hydra
    and convinced
    Theodoros Kolokotronis
    to join them by offering his daughter in marriage to one of Kolokotronis' sons. In the second round of the civil war, he was imprisoned along with Kolokotronis by the provisional government of
    Georgios Kountouriotis
    . After Independence, he became a speaker of the
    Greek Parliament
    in 1844–1845.
    Deligiannis also wrote memoirs, which are considered controversial, as they seek to justify his father's pro-Turkish stance as being beneficial for the Greek population. His memoirs also portray the rivalries of the various groups and the leading families of the Peloponnese before and during the Revolution.
    He died in 1862.

    The
    Greek War of Independence
    , also known as the
    Greek Revolution
    (
    Greek
    :
    Ελληνική Επανάσταση
    ,
    Elliniki Epanastasi
    ; referred to by
    Greeks
    in the 19th century as simply the Αγώνας,
    Agonas
    , "
    Struggle
    ";
    Ottoman
    : يونان عصياني
    Yunan İsyanı
    , "
    Greek Uprising
    "), was a successful
    war of independence
    waged by Greek revolutionaries against the
    Ottoman Empire
    between 1821 and 1830. The Greeks were later assisted by Great Britain,
    France
    and Russia, while the Ottomans were aided by their North African vassals, particularly the
    eyalet
    of
    Egypt
    . The war led to the formation of
    modern Greece
    . The revolution is celebrated by Greeks around the world as
    independence day
    on 25 March.
    Greece came under Ottoman rule in the 15th century, in the decades before and after the
    fall of Constantinople
    .
    [2]
    During the following centuries, there were sporadic but unsuccessful
    Greek uprisings
    against Ottoman rule.
    [3]
    In 1814, a secret organization called
    Filiki Eteria
    (Society of Friends) was founded with the aim of liberating Greece, encouraged by the revolutionary fervor gripping Europe in that period. The Filiki Eteria planned to launch revolts in the
    Peloponnese
    , the
    Danubian Principalities
    , and
    Constantinople
    itself. The insurrection was planned for 25 March 1821 (on the Julian Calendar), the Orthodox Christian
    Feast of the Annunciation
    . However, the plans of Filiki Eteria were discovered by the Ottoman authorities, forcing the revolution to start earlier. The first revolt began on 6 March/21 February 1821 in the
    Danubian Principalities
    , but it was soon put down by the Ottomans. The events in the north urged the Greeks in the Peloponnese (
    Morea
    ) into action and on 17 March 1821, the
    Maniots
    were first to declare war. In September 1821, the Greeks under the leadership of
    Theodoros Kolokotronis
    captured
    Tripolitsa
    . Revolts in
    Crete
    ,
    Macedonia
    , and
    Central Greece
    broke out, but were eventually suppressed. Meanwhile, makeshift Greek fleets achieved success against the
    Ottoman navy
    in the
    Aegean Sea
    and prevented Ottoman reinforcements from arriving by sea.
    Tensions soon developed among different Greek factions, leading to two consecutive civil wars. The
    Ottoman Sultan
    called in his vassal
    Muhammad Ali of Egypt
    , who agreed to send his son
    Ibrahim Pasha
    to Greece with an army to suppress the revolt in return for territorial gains. Ibrahim landed in the Peloponnese in February 1825 and brought most of the peninsula under Egyptian control by the end of that year. The town of
    Missolonghi
    fell in April 1826 after a
    year-long siege
    by the Turks. Despite a
    failed invasion of Mani
    , Athens also fell and the revolution looked all but lost.
    At that point, the three Great Powers—Russia, Britain and France—decided to intervene, sending their naval squadrons to Greece in 1827. Following news that the combined Ottoman–Egyptian fleet was going to attack the island of
    Hydra
    , the allied European fleets intercepted the Ottoman navy at
    Navarino
    . After a tense week-long standoff, the
    Battle of Navarino
    led to the destruction of the Ottoman–Egyptian fleet and turned the tide in favor of the revolutionaries. In 1828 the Egyptian army withdrew under pressure of a
    French expeditionary force
    . The Ottoman garrisons in the Peloponnese surrendered, and the Greek revolutionaries proceeded to retake central Greece. Russia invaded the Ottoman Empire and forced it to accept Greek autonomy in the
    Treaty of Adrianople (1829)
    . After nine years of war, Greece was finally recognized as an independent state under the
    London Protocol
    of February 1830. Further negotiations in 1832 led to the
    London Conference
    and the
    Treaty of Constantinople
    ; these defined the final borders of the new state and established
    Prince Otto
    of Bavaria as the first king of Greece.
