Thousands of Greek citizens gathered around the Athens Metropolitan Cathedral to pay respect to the former king. King Constantine II passed away last Tuesday in Athens at the age of 82. Constantine II became king in 1964. He was forced into exile after a failed countercoup against the military dictatorship which took over in 1967. The military junta abolished the Greek monarchy in 1973. The former king had lived in London for decades and returned to Greece a few years ago following lengthy legal disputes with the Greek state over seized properties.
