The Odyssey of Heptanese: The Βirth of a State

Η οδύσσεια των Επτανήσων: Η γέννηση του Ιονίου Κράτους

20th TDF: World premiere

The Ionian Islands experienced many conquerors until the Venetian domination. However, they preserved their Byzantine tradition and, after the fall of absolutism, they created the first Greek state: the Septinsular Republic, which will evolve into the Ionian State under British protection. The struggles against the British occupation will lead to the Union with Greece.
