Alexandros Ypsilantis
Alexandros Ypsilantis was a key figure in the Greek War of Independence, known for his leadership in the early stages of the revolution against Ottoman rule. Born into a prominent Phanariot family in 1793, he played a crucial role in organizing and executing the Greek uprising. On March 27, 1821, he entered Bucharest, where he sought to rally support for the Greek cause. His efforts were marked by both fervent support and significant challenges, including a lack of backing from local leaders due to fear of Ottoman reprisal after being excommunicated by the Patriarch. Despite these obstacles, Ypsilantis became a symbol of Greek nationalism and the struggle for independence.
Born on Jan 01, 1793 (232 years old)
