The Kingdom of Greece was the Greek state established in 1832 by the Treaty of Constantinople, which formally recognised Greece as an independent state and set it up as a monarchy after the Greek War of Independence. It succeeded the First Hellenic Republic and secured full independence from the Ottoman Empire after nearly four centuries. The country stayed a kingdom until the Second Hellenic Republic was proclaimed in 1924. The monarchy was restored in 1935 after a referendum and continued until it was abolished by the Regime of the Colonels in 1973, a result confirmed by a second referendum after the regime fell. Its capitals were Nafplio and Athens.
