Needs a sub section regarding their involvement of persecuting ottoman Muslims during ottoman contraction

Examples of this can be seen in Crete and the fall of Thessaloniki. Greece was one of the key players in persecuting ottoman Muslims and its page should not be exempt from at least outlining how when and where it did so. 92.40.196.175 (talk) 17:01, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Religion

The part in the infobox talking about religion is largely outdated with more recen studies depicting a different attitude towards religion.

https://www.kathimerini.gr/society/562979893/dimoskopisi-dianeosis-statheri-axia-i-thriskeia-kai-nea-agonia-gia-to-klima/

This study says that 18.9% of the population doesnt believe in religion.

While in this study "The U.S. government estimates the total population at 10.5 million (midyear 2022). According to research polls, 81 to 90 percent of the population identifies as Greek Orthodox, 4 to 15 percent as atheist, and 2 percent as Muslim."
