About this deal

Giclee printing with Pigment ink designed to meet galleries and museum longevity requirements and ensure consistency of shades 200 years old.

In 1878, the Pact of Halepa established the island as an autonomous state under Ottoman suzerainty, until the Ottomans reneged on that agreement in 1889.The approximate proportions of the horizontal stripes are 5:3:5 while those of the vertical stripes are 2:1:2. This image of simple geometry is ineligible for copyright and therefore in the public domain, because it consists entirely of information that is common property and contains no original authorship. The result is a flag which highlights the unique history and distinctive culture of Crete (the choice of colours) and yet shows the strong bond with the nation of Greece (the basic design). I have also added the two symbols which best represent the ancient history of Crete: The Cretan bull and a typical Labrys, representing the Bronze Age Minoan Civilisation which emerged on this very island.

The main objective is the identification, mapping and prioritisation of environmental threats of the Greek seas and how they are related to fisheries and coastal areas. It was the prelude to the island's final annexation to the Kingdom of Greece, which occurred de facto in 1908 and de jure in 1913 after the First Balkan War. The Muslim minority of Crete initially remained on the island but was later relocated to Turkey under the general population exchange agreed to in the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne between Turkey and Greece.On 6 September 1898 (25 August 1898 according to the Julian calendar then in use on Crete, which was 12 days behind the modern Gregorian calendar during the 19th century), a Cretan Muslim mob massacred hundreds of Cretan Greeks and murdered the British vice-consul, his family, and 14 British soldiers and sailors, in the city of Candia (modern Heraklion). To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. In May 1912, the Cretan deputies travelled to Athens and tried to enter the Greek Parliament, but were forcibly prevented from doing so by the police.

The Cretan Gendarmerie remained loyal to the Prince, but numerous deputies joined the revolt, and despite the Powers' declaration of martial law on 18 July, their military forces did not move against the rebels.

In Greece, nationalist secret societies and a fervently irredentist public opinion forced the Greek government to send military forces to the island. The Heraklion chamber of commerce and industry and the Pancreta cooperative bank as well as the women’s agricultural cooperatives of Kroussona and Archanes complete the membership.For administrative purposes, Crete is divided into four regional units (Chania, Heraklion, Lasíthi and Rethýmno) and 24 municipalities.

The flag of the Cretan State was replaced by the Greek flag, all public servants took an oath to King George I of Greece, and the Greek constitution and laws were enacted on the island. The union of Crete to Greece was proclaimed at a flag-raising ceremony in Chania, which is still ceremonially repeated every Sunday.
