Should we exist?

[Bereta_Eder]

As greeks. I mean of course we do. but do we have that right? We want the good times rolling. That's no secret. We like having good times. Reading the centuries of darkness under ottoman rule. Well, Greece is a product of the enlightment. I can't stretch this enough. Without the enlightnment there would be no Greece because there would be no awakening

[Bereta_Eder]

It's like... the ancestors of this land... sawed some seeds and after millenia foreigners took those seeds and planted trees again and then start bangling those trees upon the greeks' head untill they awakened

[Bereta_Eder]

The reports are from english and french. Predominently french. Up to a certain point, as catholics they were giuven the boot and they served it too "greeks are cowards, slave mentality like nothing of their ancient valor remains" while being chased away by an angry - armed - greek priest

[Bereta_Eder]

The englightment VOLTAIRE especially has very very very very very very much to do with the creation of the greek modern state. A society. A secret society, based on free mason traits, secret handshakes the whole deal. Plotting, conspiring, engaging, co-or4dinating behind the scenes. Driven by the englightment the given right to be free. Every man has the right to be free. 25 of march general command REVOLT

[Bereta_Eder]

SUCCESS! suddendly. there was a greece as a terrritorial entity AGAIN. the peloponese free. turks massacred but higher ones saved for ransom speaking greek giving advice. NO. the GRAND GATE the ottomans would have nothing of it. Retaliate. EGYPT. massive fleet. the secret society. secret message to the russian princess to be passed on to the english crown. Not through official chanels. They are compromised

[Bereta_Eder]

When the egyptians come the greeks will be taken away. the whole of greece will be evacuated to egypt where THER GREEk RACE would perish. the wholee of greece will be populated by egyptians brought here. that was the plan. Greeks were free but were fighting each other. The ottoman genocide was steadfastly approaching

[Bereta_Eder]

Regions split between arm chiefs. Yes the enlightment have RE-birth to the greek spirit a national sense of self. However success breeds antagonism within one's own kind. In fighting. The egyptian flet was advancing upwars the mediterranean. Thet greeks would be genocided. That is the agreement.

[Bereta_Eder]

They dared raise their heads. They dared say EVERY MAN HAS THE RIGHT TO BE FREE

[Bereta_Eder]

tHE INITLA REVOLT WAS A SUCCESS Greeks had a place of their own after 400 years of bitter slavery. However the infighting was happening. Plus noon thought the egyptians would attack at winder. They did talked into it by a french advisor. The train of events. The secret society understands the danger. Intercepts the plan of the greek genocide to be carried. Sees the egyptian galleys taking land. Freeze. Think. Reflect.

[Bereta_Eder]

Geopolitics dicate (the secret society deems): Russians will not allow the greek genocide to take place. They will come to the defense of their own faith people and wholly occupy all the sea trade routes. The english HAVE to stop this. French HAVE to stop this. The secret society deems. Russians snd england should be informed of the plan. Their geopolitical national interests will dictate a new battle of lepanto. For the favor of GREECE

[Lorizael]

but do we have that right?

There are no rights. We are meat in a dying universe.

[Bereta_Eder]

I'm going to get a pizza and beer and come back because it's ghetting very interesting

[Lorizael]

Maybe hold off on the beer.

Since "the Enlightenment" refers to about a century's worth of ideas across Western Europe (by the most conservative definitions), and Western Europe was dominant in world affairs around that time and since, there's not a lot in current events that would have come about the same way if the Enlightenment had never occurred.
