Sophia was the sister of Emperor Wilhelm II of Germany, and was also a cousin of King George V through her grandmother, Queen Victoria. Constantine was a grandson of King Christian IX of Denmark and a cousin of both King George V of the United Kingdom and Emperor Nicholas II of Russia. His father was the eldest son and heir apparent of King George I of Greece by his wife Grand Duchess Olga Constantinovna of Russia his mother was the daughter of Emperor Frederick III of Germany and his wife Victoria, Princess Royal of the United Kingdom. He was related to royalty throughout Europe.
After a general election and a referendum, Constantine I was restored to the throne.Īlexander was born at Tatoi Palace on 1 August 1893 (20 July in the Julian calendar), the second son of Crown Prince Constantine of Greece of the House of Glücksburg and his wife Princess Sophia of Prussia. The sudden death of the sovereign led to questions over the monarchy's survival and contributed to the fall of the Venizelist regime. Soon after returning to Greece with his wife, Alexander was bitten by a domestic Barbary macaque and died of sepsis. Under his reign, the territorial extent of Greece considerably increased, following the victory of the Entente and their Allies in the First World War and the early stages of the Greco-Turkish War of 1919–1922.Īlexander controversially married the commoner Aspasia Manos in 1919, provoking a major scandal that forced the couple to leave Greece for several months. Though reduced to the status of a puppet king, Alexander supported Greek troops during their war against the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria. Venizelos, as prime minister, was the effective ruler with the support of the Entente.
Having no real political experience, the new king was stripped of his powers by the Venizelists and effectively imprisoned in his own palace. He succeeded his father in 1917, during World War I, after the Entente Powers and the followers of Eleftherios Venizelos pushed Constantine I, and his eldest son Crown Prince George, into exile. The second son of King Constantine I, Alexander was born in the summer palace of Tatoi on the outskirts of Athens.
