[[File:Balkan Screenshot.jpg|thumb|1836年在奥斯曼帝国阴影下的希腊]]
'''希腊'''是一个在{{flag|奥斯曼帝国}}以南，控制着大部分希腊文化土地的[[开化国家]]。希腊是一个非常有游戏体验的国家：开局时希腊狭小的国土上的人口以农民为主且极度缺乏资本家，却被强敌环绕。唯一的好消息是这个强敌正在衰弱而各小国都在寻求抱团和帮助。希腊开局时就在{{flag|联合王国}}的势力范围内，这一条件成为了希腊崛起的一个巨大助力。

设计师的其中一个[[彩蛋]]允许希腊重建{{flag|东罗马帝国}}，虽然设计师认为在正常游戏中这是不可能的。
==开局情况==
==== 在外的希腊领土 ====
希腊有大量未取得的[[核心]]领土，包括埃及控制的{{flag|克里特}}和{{flag|爱奥尼亚群岛}}和奥斯曼控制的马其顿。

==== 经济 ====
希腊开局时的经济状况非常糟糕，因此必须要提高税收和关税并尽量削减开支。在开局时希腊是肯定付不起军费的，教育和行政开支也必须减少。

那么希腊该如何走出经济困境呢？1836年的希腊是一个预算极度紧张的小国——紧张的都不好意思称其为经济。幸好希腊还有一个可以随便改变政党的政府：俄罗斯派是一个[[国家资本主义]]政党，可以让希腊在没有{{icon|capitalists}}[[资本家]]的情况下建工厂。

在未来的工业发展上，希腊生产的{{icon|cotton}}棉花可以用于{{icon|regular clothes}}衣物厂的生产，而{{icon|fruit}}水果可以用于{{icon|wine}}葡萄酒厂的生产。虽然不论如何{{icon|coal}}煤和{{icon|Iron}}铁总是会稀缺的。

== 开局时 ==
正如每一个低识字率的国家应该做的一样，希腊应该设置国家焦点在人口最多的省份的神职人员上。

1836年的希腊最大的问题就是贫穷，但即便顶着国库空虚且缺乏资本家的巨大劣势，希腊也应该借钱来建工厂。
事实上，如果操作得当，并不需要做出任何牺牲以换取经济发展。 

===Greek politics ===
Greece starts out as an [[absolute monarchy]], but it has a decision [[Voule ton Ellinon]] which changes the government to [[HM's Government]]. Unlike an absolute monarchy, this allows all kinds of parties, but it offers a little less control of the politics of Greece. One must consider the opportunity.

=== Retaking the Greek cores ===
====Crete====
In the early years it is important to watch {{flag|Egypt}}. The Ottoman Empire has cores on half of the Egyptian land so a war will eventually come. Because of this it is a good idea to take Crete while the Egyptians are distracted by the Oriental Crisis. The fleet will be vulnerable if Greece is the only one attacking Egypt, but they will ultimately offer little resistance if they are focusing on the Ottoman Empire. Egypt starts out with a navy that more than matches the Greek one, but they might choose to disband it to save money. If they choose to do so, retaking Crete will be even easier.

==== East and West Macedonia, Cyprus, Aegean Islands====
Greece does at some point need to face the previously so mighty Ottoman Empire.
The empire is however not the threat that it once was. The Greek provinces in the empire will likely cause several [[Crisis|crises]]. Otherwise one can build up the strength to take action and attack. 

A strong fleet will help tremendously in the war, as one can trap any Ottoman troops that are placed in the Asian part of the empire by blocking the Bosphorus Strait by Istanbul. One does however need a considerable stronger fleet, as one does also need transport ships to occupy islands while holding the strait. 

A continued alliance with UK will help as they have the most powerful fleet in the world.

==== Ionian Islands ====
[[Ionian Islands]] start in the sphere and as a [[puppet]] of UK, which makes them impossible to take by war. The Ionian Islands cannot be considered exactly valuable, but Greece will most likely receive them for free. UK will at some point after they have invented [[Nationalism and Imperialism]] take the [[decision]] [[Treaty of London (1864)]] to hand them over.

====[[The Megali Idea]]====
After taking its initial cores, Greece can take a decision called ''The Megali Idea'', which will give cores on several states in Anatolia and also Thrace. It should not be a problem to take those, if one have already proven that Greece can beat The Ottoman Empire. The Megali Idea requires all of Greece's cores and the discovery of National Fraternity.

In order to take Thrace, it must not be the Ottoman Empire's capital state (it contains Istanbul). If the empire loses Rumalia (Bulgaria) and East Macedonia, it gets a decision to move the capital to Ankara. So in addition to cores, it is advantageous to either conquer Rumalia or release Bulgaria.

===Other targets of conquest===
Once this is done, one can consider using the alliance with UK to establish a protectorate over {{flag|Johore}}, {{flag|Burma}} or any of the South Asian nations. Johore is home to two gold mines while the others have valuable resources like {{icon|tobacco}}tobacco, {{icon|opium}}opium, {{icon|tropical wood}}tropical wood, {{icon|tea}}tea, and, later on, {{icon|oil}}oil. They will surely help the Greek economy. Taking coastal provinces in the region also opens the possibility of [[colonizing]] the unclaimed parts of Indonesia and South east Asia.

One can also go after specifically provinces with {{icon|coal}}coal as that is lacking in Greece proper.

== Forming the Byzantine Empire ==

It is possible for Greece to form the [[Byzantine Empire]]! The conditions that need to be in place to be able to take this decision are that Greece should have Greek as the primary culture, be a great power, control all of Greece's cores, own Istanbul in the state of Thrace (Istanbul will become Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire) and the entirety of the Konya, Bursa, and Izmir regions, and have the government type either [[HM's Government]] or [[Absolute Monarchy]]. 

However, Istanbul is the capital of the Ottoman Empire and capitals are not claimable by other nations. Luckily the Ottoman Empire will get the [[event]] [[Flight from Istanbul]] which moves the capital to Ankara, if they lose East Macedonia and Rumelia so dismantling the Ottomans entirely is not necessary.

All of the regions that are needed to control to refound the Byzantine Empire, except Konya, will be cored by The Megali Idea. Even though the Ottoman Empire generally tends to go into decline, they are nonetheless still a difficult nation to deal with.
