Political party in Greece From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Freethinkers' Party or Free Opinion Party (Greek: Κόμμα των Ελευθεροφρόνων) was a Greek nationalist and monarchist party founded and led by Ioannis Metaxas who was the Prime Minister and dictator of Greece from 1936 to 1941.[4] It was formally founded in November 1922 after the adoption of the party's manifesto that was unveiled on 13 October 1922.[5] Metaxas had the party and all other parties dissolved following the establishment of the 4th of August Regime, in which he ruled as an official independent.[6]
