Greece has a long (and sometimes troublesome) political past. Despite being the birthplace of democracy, little in the way of democratic values extended to the Greek populace until relatively recently. Having been ruled throughout the centuries by such disparate powers as the Ottoman Empire, several foreign kings after gaining independence, and even Fasicst Italy and Nazi Germany during World War Two, the country's political troubles reached their boiling point following the parliamentary elections of 1964, when a middle-of-the-aisle political party was slated to win for the first time ever. What happened next might surprise you (or not). Tune in this week to see for yourself!
