The Greek War started on April 17, 1897, when an uprising broke out in Crete in 1896 with the provocation of the Greeks and the Greeks landed troops on the island in 1897. When the Ottoman armies captured Dömeke on May 17, 1897 and the road to Athens was opened, the Western States wanted the war to be stopped and The Treaty of Istanbul was signed on May 20, 1897. However, although the war was won, a government consisting of Russia, England, France and Italy was established in Crete. After the declaration of the II. Constitutional Monarchy (1908), the Cretan Parliament declared that it joined Greece.
