The
Second Hellenic Republic is the historiographical term for the political regime of
Greece between 1924 and 1935. It followed from the period of the constitutional monarchy under the monarchs of the
House of Glücksburg, and lasted until its overthrow in a military coup d'état which restored the monarchy. The Second Republic marks the second period in
modern Greek history where Greece was not headed by a king, with the
assemblies and provisional governments of the
Greek Revolution being regarded as the
First Republic.
