List of heads of state of Greece
- List of heads of state of Greece
This is a list of the heads of state of Greece, from the foundation of the modern nation state until the present.
First Hellenic Republic/Governorate (1828-1833)
After the death of Alexander the succession proved problematic, as the Venizelist government at first favoured Alexander's younger brother Paul. As Paul refused to pass by his father Constantine and his elder brother George, the government favoured a republican government and established a regency pending a decision on the matter.
Kingdom of Greece (1935-1973)
On 1 June 1973 the junta abolished the monarchy and replaced it with a presidential republic.
Third Hellenic Republic (since 1974)
In 1974, the military junta was overthrown and democracy restored. A second referendum, held on 8 December 1974, confirmed the abolition of the monarchy and the establishment of the current parliamentary republic, with the President of the Republic as the head of state.
