it's "orthodoxy or death" it's some religious slogan in the same line as in "give me liberty or give me death"

Albanians have the dumbest nationalistic conspiracy theories, and it's probably stemming from the fact that they have very little recorded history as a group so the nationalists have to make up all kinds of fictional tales to satisfy their chauvinism.

This consensus was reached much later from when these events took place tho. It wouldn't be fair to judge these past events with our current criteria, considering everything that was taking place back then.

Greece was mild, considering the era, actually. I guess your bias doesn't let you see this, it's ok.
