Byzantium Reborn
BYZANTIUM REBORN
The battle to shape the modern Near East.
World War I left both Greece and Türkey near ruin. Each would pursue its own vision of national rebirth. For Venizélos and Greece, the dream was called the Great Idea — «Μεγάλη Iδέα» — and promised the renaissance of Greece as a great power through a restoration of the Byzantine Empire, the reconquest of Constantinople (lost to the Türks in 1453), and the reunion of all ethnic Greeks under the rule of Athens. For Kemal’s Türks, their own “great idea” was the forging of a new, compact Türkish Republic united not by the outdated creed of Islam, but by a new Türkish nationalism, modernized and empowered by Western culture and commerce.
