Kapodistrias: the Unwanted Hero

The fifth episode focuses on the first Governor of Greece, Ioannis Kapodistrias. In January 1828, Ioannis Kapodistrias arrived in Greece in order to complete the most difficult task: the creation of a modern and centralized state. His time, however, counts down, as his opponents are many and strong, inside and outside Greece. His brutal assassination, the formation of the first independent Greek Kingdom and the valuation of the two centuries of Greek Independence.
