[Management, Farming, Diplomacy, No System] In 1863, 17-year-old Prince George of Denmark became King of Greece. People say he changed everything.

He spent sixty years proving that a nation's strength lies not in passionate enthusiasm, but in pragmatic calmness; not in militarism, but in restraint and hard work. The poet praised his achievements in this way: When lightning streaks across the sky and thunder roars throughout Constantinople. From Libya to Batumi, wherever the bells of my Orthodox Church are heard, the glory of my Basilius shines forth.
