Eleftherios Kyriakou Venizelos (1864 – 1936) was a Cretan Greek statesman and prominent leader of the Greek national liberation movement. He is noted for his contribution to the expansion of Greece and promotion of liberal-democratic policies. As leader of the Liberal Party, he held office as prime minister of Greece for over 12 years, spanning eight terms between 1910 and 1933. During his governance Venizelos entered into diplomatic cooperation with the Great Powers and had profound influence on the internal and external affairs of Greece. He has therefore been labeled as The Maker of Modern Greece and is still widely known as the Father of the Nation.

Constantine I (1868 – 1923) was King of Greece from 18 March 1913 to 11 June 1917 and from 19 December 1920 to 27 September 1922. He was commander- in-chief of the Hellenic Army during the unsuccessful Greco-Turkish War of 1897 and led the Greek forces during the successful Balkan Wars of 1912–1913, in which Greece expanded to include Thessaloniki, doubling in area and population. The eldest son of George I of Greece, he succeeded to the throne following his father’s assassination in 1913.
