Death 1920 10 10 [1], a seemingly insignificant event happened in the royal garden of Athens, but it affected the whole modern Greek history. King Alexander I took his pet dog for a walk in the imperial garden. The pet dog was attacked by a monkey. Alexander I drove the monkey away with a stick, but he was slightly bitten by the monkey. At this time, another monkey came to protect its companion. The king was bitten again in the process of driving it away. This time, the bite was worse. [2] Both monkeys were later killed. [3] A few days later, the king's wound was infected, and his condition worsened in June 65438+ 10/2, which was life-threatening. [4]1920101On October 25th, Alexander I died of septicemia in Athens. [5] Two months later, his father Constantine I, who was exiled in Switzerland, was restored. After the restoration, Constantine I continued the second Greek-Turkish war. The war ended in a fiasco in Greece, and 250 thousand Greeks died in the war; The "great ideal" is completely over; All the territory gained during the reign of Alexander I was lost. Churchill commented: "A monkey killed 250,000 people." [6] The body of Alexander I was buried in the Royal Cemetery in Tatooy. The Greek city of Alexandria (formerly known as Agacci) was named after Alexander I, who visited the city captured by the Greek army during World War I in 1920. Alexander I is the only monarch in Greece who does not inherit the throne according to the eldest son inheritance system. His eldest brother was still alive when he succeeded to the throne. And after his death, there was a rare precedent of "brotherhood" (although not directly). Marriage and Children Alexander I had only one problem with Venizelos, and that was his marriage. 1919165438+10 On October 4th, Alexander I privately agreed to elope with his girlfriend aspasia Manos (α σ α σ α μ ν ο λ), who was regarded as a civilian. Aspasia is the daughter of Colonel pedros Manos (π τ ο μ ο) and his wife Maria Al killop Lo (μ α τ α τ γ ο π ο λ ο). The scandal angered Venizelos. Aspasia was forced to leave Athens until the crisis was resolved and the marriage was legalized. Aspasia can't be recognized as the queen, just called "Ms. Manos". After the restoration of Constantine I, aspasia Manos was named "Princess Alexander" by Constantine I, and Alexander I had a daughter who was a widow: Alexandra (α λ ε ξνρ α, 192 1 March 25th, 1993/kloc).
