Treaty of Constantinople

The Treaty of Constantinople, signed in 1832, ended the Greek War of Independence. It established Greece as an independent state after years of fighting against Ottoman rule. The treaty recognized Greece's borders and granted it recognition by major European powers. The agreement aimed to stabilize the region following the turmoil of the war and was a significant step in the decline of the Ottoman Empire, contributing to the rise of national identity in the Balkans. The treaty marked Greece's transition from being part of the Ottoman Empire to a sovereign nation.
