About This Novel

In 1863, the 17-year-old Prince George of Denmark came to Athens and became the king of the Greeks. People say he changed everything. Commenting on him, historians wrote: What he inherited was a small peninsula country that was poor, chaotic, and desperate. What he left behind was a stable, strong, and prosperous Near Eastern power. He spent sixty years proving that the strength of a country does not lie in enthusiasm, but in pragmatism and calmness; it does not lie in militarism, but in restrained cultivation. The poet praised his achievements thus: When lightning streaked across the sky and thunder echoed through Constantinople. From Libya to Baku, wherever the sound of my Orthodox bells is heard, the glory of my Basilius shines.

Restore Greek polytheism?

Polytheistic Rome is the orthodox Rome, while Christian Rome is ultimately a creation of the Jews.
