Explanation of Greek Events
 * There were riots all over the nation before the recession happened. Then the recession happened.
 * Russia immediately sent their fleet into the Aegean Sea. Anti-government forces mobilized in a coalition against government forces to restore order to the nation.
 * Russia started funding Golden Dawn directly, which had significant influence in the coalition. At a similar time, NATO governments started sending significant funding to the New Democrats, the opposition party in Greece at the time.
 * When Russia began to aid the coalition using their fleet, the coalition broke apart due to major disagreements. It was soon leaked that NATO was funding the New Democrats, and so the coalition dissolved into various states. Out of these states, a number of factions emerged.
 * The National Front of Greece, led by Golden Dawn, took over many of the smaller factions, towns, and cities bordering the Aegean Sea, where the Russian fleet is primarily stationed.
 * The Commonwealth, led by the New Democrats, continued to fight against other factions, primarily United Epirus and the National Front.
 * United Epirus is one of three indepenent factions that emerged from the broken coalition. With Macedonia and Crete, they formed an alliance to fight against international forces and bring an independent Greece back.
 * Macedonia acquired sections of the Greek Navy, allowing them to aid Epirus and Crete and forming the basis of a factional alliance.
 * Crete is a minor player in the alliance, but gained a lot of aid from Macedonia and Epirus. They almost united the island before the National Front made their bases there and started moving inward. They are now on the brink of collapse.
 * The People's Coalition is what is left of Syriza - Coalition of the Radical Left. They were briefly in the coalition before splitting off after learning of Russia's involement with the National Front. They are being attacked by Commonwealth and National Front forces constantly and have established an immovable defensive position, although Greece may expose their flank to the Commonwealth.
 * Greece is what is left of the old Greek government which filed for bankruptcy. It is a military junta, led by sympathetic sections of the old Greek military that were still loyal to the Greek government. They are slowly collapsing, as more people see the Commonwealth or the Alliance as more favourable options.
