Georgios Georgiadis
Edit ProfileCareer
After being appointed Prince, he came to the island, but he realized that a civil war was about to break out. To avoid fighting his own people, he gave his resignation to the Ottoman Sultan. When he left, he told the Samian Parliament: "Fellow Samians, I am leaving because I don"t want to execute the illegal orders of the Ottoman government.
I hope that I will not be replaced by Andreas Kopasis".
However, that is exactly what happened.
