The Greek Revolution of 1843 was a significant uprising against the monarchy of King Otto of Greece. It was driven by widespread discontent among the Greek population, who sought political reforms and a more representative government. The revolution began on September 3, 1843, when soldiers and citizens gathered in Athens to demand a constitution. The movement successfully pressured King Otto to grant a constitution, leading to the establishment of a parliamentary system in Greece. This event marked a crucial step in the development of modern Greek democracy and reflected the growing desire for political rights among the Greek people.
