Flag (proposed) of the "Principality of Pindus" during WW2
During the First World War in 1917, the Italian Army put forth the idea for the establishment of the "Principality of Pindus" based in Mecova in order to gain support in Greece. The head of that project was chosen the Prince Alcibiades Diamandi, a Samarina Vlach of Thessaly, a lawyer by profession. During WWI the project did not find broad support from the Pindus Vlach population. Prince Alcibiades Diamandi left Greece after the end of WWI and moved to Romania.
During World War II, the Greek Army, led usually by senior officers of Vlach origin, surrendered to the German & Italian Army. On 20 April 1941, on Easter Sunday, the Vlach General of Greek Corp-Army I Panagiotis Demestichas, the General of the Corp-Army II Georgios Bake, the Metropolitan of Ioannina Spyridon who was a Vlach from Pogonia, signed the surrender and cooperation of the Greek Epirus Army with the German Army and later with the Italian Army (The Metropolitan of Ioannina, Spyridon, was a bigoted anti-Albanian. He was the Minister of interior in the government of Northern Autonomy of Epirus in 1914. The Metropolitan of Ioannina, Spyridon, served as the Archbishop of Greece in 1949-1956. The people knew him by the name of Spyridon Vlachos, but his real surname was Sito). After surrendering the Greek Army of Epirus and of Greek Macedonia, the Greek generals with Vlach origin gained privileges of ministerial-levels during the greek collaborationist goverments governments of 1941-1944.
On 29 April 1941, the Chief of Staff of the German Army High Command Alfred Jodl and General Alberto Ferrero, Chief of Staff of the Italian Army in Albania, appointed Greek Prime Minister Georgios Tsolakoglou, who had a Vlach origin. After being assigned as Prime Minister, Georgios Tsolakoglou appointed General Panagiotis Demestichas, who was a Vlach, as Interior Minister and another top military officer, Theodore Saranti, a Vlach, as Mayor of Trikala. Colonel Theodhosiso Papadheothosiu, who was another Vlach, was elected as Mayor of Larissa-Volos. Vlachs already led Greece and that reality helped them to declare the independence of the "Principality of Pindus".
In May 1941, Alcibiades Diamandi returned to Greece, went to Ioannina and conducted meetings with Vlachs there. In the summer of that year, Diamandi began a tour across the Vlach settlements, such as in Samarina, Grevena, Larisa, Trikala, Elassona and in many other villages, conducting over 50 meetings in those areas with Vlach graduates in Italian and Romanian schools. During those meetings with the Vlachs of Pindus, Diamandi opened the offices of the Autonomy of the Principality of Pindus in Meçova, Ioannina, Grevena, etc.
On 25 September 1941, Alcibiades Diamandi sent a memorandum to the the first collaborationist Prime Minister Georgios Tsolakoglou, as a representative of the Vlachs of Pindus and of the South Balkan Vlachs. The memorandum of Diamandi initially contained few requirements: a) The appointment of prefects, mayors and local leaders, would be done by him. b) The dismissal of permanent employees and the transfer of those who are not in favor of that movement. c) To compensate the injured individuals during the Italian-Greek war and Vlachs who had offered animals, fur and other items for the care of the soldiers. d) To punish those who during the Greek-Italian war had transfered rumanozondes with anti-national behavior.
In autumn 1941, the Prince of Pindus Diamandi moved to Larissa and -with the support of Italians who controlled that territory- founded the Roman Legions Army. The commandant of those Vlach troops was appointed Nikolaos Matusi who was born in Samaria and lived in Larissa. The number of Vlachs who wore the uniform of the Roma nLegions was about 2000.
The Vlach military troops operated jointly with the Italian Army, which was commanded by the Italian General Romero, in places such as Trikala, Elassona, Samarina, Grevena, Metsovo, Kalabak, Larissa, Farce, etc. They partially terrorized the population, robbed some of their food and possessions. The Vlach Roman Legions were attacked by the partisan troops of ELAS several times. On 1 March 1942, the Vlachs intellectuals of Greece and representatives of the Vlachs in Albania, Bulgaria and Serbia, signed the "Manifesto of the South Balkan Vlachs".
At the top of the list of the signatories of that Manifesto of Vlachs was the chairman of the Vlachs of the Southern Balkans Alcibiades Diamandi, the chairman of the Vlachs of the Pindus Nikolaos Matusi, chairman of the Vlachs in Albania VasiliVarnduli, of Serbia Micelle Tegojani, of Bulgaria Ziko Area. The Vlach intellectuals of Greece who signed that Manifesto were: professor Dimo Cutra, doctor Kosta Taxon, lawyer Georgio Franko, professor A. Beka, Gaqi Papa, doctor Niko Micibuna, professor Dim Kaxhigogo, lawyer Kalometro, Colonel Vasilis Jorgos, professor Kosta Nikolesko, professor Jorgo Kondojani, K. Kaloera, professor Virxhilio Balamace, professor MiceleBarnd, engineer E. Goxhamani, engineer K. Stefa, engineer Niko A. Beka, professorJorgo Balamate, engineer S. Peleqi, lawyer K. Pituli, lawyer Dim Barnda, lawyerToli Haxhi, John Kopano, professor Zisi Haxhibira, doctor Serxhio Triandafili, JaniMercos, Pericles Piteni, Jorgo Gjuleka, Akille Taqi Furkoti, Athanasius Balodhimo. As it can be seen, the names who signed the manifesto of the Vlachs are intellectual figures of Greece, not ordinary people, workers, farmers, but well educated people who were well aware of what they signed. After the war, most of them were not severely punished or expelled from Greece as it happened with the Cham Moslem albanian population, under the pretext that they were allegedly Germans collaborationists. Today, their children or grandchildren are MPs, ministers, mayors, senior officials of the state institutions of Greece.
In late 1943, after it became obvious that the German-Italian Axis power were losing the war, the leaders of the Vlach legions and the majority of its members abandoned their uniforms and joined the troops of Napoleon Zervas. The Prince of Pindus Alcibiades Diamandi left Greece and moved to Romania. Once the communists seized power there, he was arrested in 1948 and died a few months after his arrest in the basement of the Interior Ministry in Romania.
The Prime Minister of the Principality of Pindus and the commander in chief of the armed forces of the Roman Legions, Nikolaos Matusi, fled Larisa after the capitulation of the fascist Italy in September 1943 and went to Athens where he collaborated with the German Army. He fled to Romania after the liberation of Greece in October 1944. There, the Romanian communist police imprisoned him as a collaborator of the German Army. At the request of Greece in 1964, he was transferred back to continue his sentence. At the Court held in Athens in May 1964, the senior leader of EDES for Athens, Apostoli Papageorge, and the political leader, Apostol Paguco, were called to witness about Nikolaos Matusi. Only Papaegeorge gave evidence in the court as witness. In Greece, Nikolaos Matusi enjoyed privileges up to the level of carrying aweapon with permission. In spite of the fact that he was a collaborator of the Italian and German Armies, the Greek courts never condemned him. His daughter, Ksenia Matusiwas, was one of the most renowned painters in Greece and enjoyed privileges despite of her father being a collaborator of the Italian and German Armies during World War II. Nikolaos Matusi died in 1991 in Larissa.
The Vlach population of the Pindus, although officially documented as collaborators of the Italian and German Armies, was not expelled from Greece. In the contrary, it took over the leadership of the country and participated directly in the massacres of the Albanian population in Chameria. The Vlachs of Pindus, together with the orthodox refugees from Asia Minor, were the ones who plundered and exploited the properties of Chams.The historian and journalist Dhimosthenis Kukunas, who has published several books and two volumes about the events in occupied Greece 1941-1944, brings the names of 83 Vlachs who signed the Manifesto of March 1942 and who were part of the Roman Legions; in fact, their number as aforementioned was larger. What sounds the bell is the fact that the children and grandchildren of the majority of the Vlach collaborators with the Italian and German Armies have enjoyed privileges. They have been or are MPs and historians who propagate against Albania for years.
So, Vlachs were not persecuted or expelled from Greece under the charge of being collaborationists of the Italian and German Armies. The untrue charge applied only to Cham Albanians was deliberately used to justify the expulsion of 25000 moslem albanians (Chams) from Greece to Albania.
The research proved that the children or grandchildren of Vlachs who collaborated with the Italian and German Armies and who enjoyed privileges are the following:
Joan Nikolaos Mercos, born in Nimfeo of Florina. The residents of that village are Vlachs and some of them had come from Voskopoja. He was the signatory of the Manifesto of Autonomy of the Principality of Pindus. After the cooperation with the Italian Army in Larissa, in 1942, Joan moved to Thessaloniki with his family and began to collaborate with the German Army. After the war he was sentenced to 11 years to prison. His son Nikolaos Joan Mercos was born in 1936 in Nimfeo of Florina. He now is a lawyer, writer and has published over 15 books. Nikolaos Mercos, the son of the Italian and German collaborationist, was the national adviser for Greek Prime Minister Konstantinos Mitsotakis in 1990-1993. Nikolaos Mercos also assisted closely the former President and former Prime Minister of Greece Constantine Karamanlis. Nikolaos Mercos is an honored figure of the Greek state. Nikolaos Mercos belongs to the anti-Albanian group that promotes the annexation of southern Albania and is a friend of the Archbishop of the Orthodox Church of Albania, Anastasios.The MP of Greece Konstantinos Gioulekas of the New Democracy party is a relative of Georgios Gioulekas, a Vlach from Samara. Georgios Gioulekas was a signatory of the Manifesto for the Autonomy of the Vlachs of Pindus in March 1942. He was member of the Vlach Roman Legions and a collaborationist with the Italian and German Armies in 1941-1944. The fate of Georgios Gioulekas is unknown, but the MP Konstantinos Gioulekas derives from the same family. The Vlach Konstantinos Gioulekas is a lawyer and has worked as a journalist for several years in the city of Thessaloniki. Since 2000, he is MP of the New Democracy Party in the Greek Parliament and has been assigned deputy-minister several times.
Within the Ottoman Empire, Vlachs had more rights than Albanians. They had primary and secondary schools in their native language, which is similar to Romanian.The struggle for the assimilation of Vlachs was competitive between Romanians and Greeks, and that caused Vlachs to have dual national consciousness and often fought each other fiercely. There were Vlachs of Grevena with a Romanian consciousness who assassinated the Greek Metropolitan Emiliaos in October 1911, because he propagated their assimilation.
More names of Vlach collaborationists.
As mentioned before, the historian and journalist Dhimosthenis Kukunas has revealed 83 Vlach names that signed the "Manifesto for the Autonomy of the Vlachs" in March 1942 and participated in the Vlach Roman Legions, aiding the Italian and German Armies. Some of them were not punished at all, others received 2-6 years in prison, and a marginal number of them sentenced to life imprisonment. The families of Vlachs who proclaimed the Autonomy of Pindus and who collaborated officially with the Italian and German Armies were neither persecuted nor expelled from Greece by Greek authorities after 1944. Their Greek citizenship was not revoked as it happened with Cham Albanians. Despite of the fact that the allegations about Cham Albanians collaboration with the invading Italian and German Armies were never proved, Cham Albanians were massacred and expelled permanently from their homes where they lived for thousands of years. The classic racist policy of Greeks is now documented in the books of Greek authors and affirms clearly the ethnic and religious divisions.
Alqiviadhis Konstandin Diamandi was born in Samarina in 1894 in a wealthyfamily. During the First World War, he had the rank of a non-commissioned officer in the Greek Army in 1917 and acted in the Vlach villages of Pindus. With Italian support he founded the Army of the Principality of Pindus and proclaimed himself a Prince. For those actions the Greek court convicted Diamandi, but he received forgiveness with the amnesty of 1927. In 1920-1925, Alcibiades Diamandi was a diplomat of Romania in Sarandon, keeping contact with Romanian and Italian secret services. In the early 1930s, he returned to Greece as a representative of some Romanian companies of oil and timber. During that period Alcibiades started the recruitment of Vlachs of Thessaly and Epirus in order to establish the Principality of Pindus with its own Army. With the arrival of the Italian and German Armies in 1941 Alqiviadhis Konstandin Diamandi established the Roman Legions of Vlachs, which were financed by the Italian Army. Prime Minister andcommander of the Principality of Pindus became Nikolaos Matuci. In late 1942, Alcibiades Diamandi left Greece and moved to Romania. When the communists came to power in 1948, he was arrested and died after a few days in jail.
Nikolaos Mattheo Matusi was born in 1899 in Samarina of Pindus. After he finished university studies in Athens, he began working as a lawyer in Larissa. He was the signatory of the Manifesto of the Autonomy of Vlachs of Pindus in March 1942, and later the general commander of the Vlach forces known as the Roman Legions.
