Recently in Greece, a statue of the last Byzantine Emperor Constantine XI Palaiologos, was unveiled in Piraeus. He went down with the ship, so to speak in 1453 and is an important figure in Hellenic History.
Meanwhile in Ramovouni, Messinia, the home town of Theodoros Kolokotronis, his statue there was vandalised, by the well known virus that has plagued Greece for far too long, known as far left anti Greek anarchists. He is another great and important figure for all Greeks.
Many might be seeing the crazyness particularly in the West, where certain groups are trying to have monuments re-named or removed and they want to alter or re-write history.
We as Greeks are above that crap. Our history, culture and heritage are sacrosanct. Don't let the media or any alleged famous people or anybody else, try to diminish our heritage or pride regarding it, or to talk you out of or try to convince you other wise about Greece's history.
