06 Crown Prince Constantine Of Greece by Heirs to the Throne Project Podcasts published on 2017-07-12T14:56:40Z The Prussian Duke of Sparta Crown Prince Constantine of Greece, the later King Constantine I of the Hellenes, is probably one of the most controversial figures in Modern Greek History. This podcast focuses on the formative years of his heirship. It examines Constantine’s troublesome relationship with the Greek people by viewing it through the prism of his uncommonly German education and Prussian marriage. One could argue that these early aspects of his life would lastingly influence his later politics, especially during the so-called “national schism”. Music by Vincenzo Damiani, based on the popular Greek song Του αετού ο γιός (ca. 1912). Sound effects from https://freesound.org: - "Footsteps of soldier on ground" by Iberian_Runa.
