Spyros Kontoulis
Spyros Kontoulis ( el, Σπύρος Κοντούλης; 1915 — 1944) was a Greek footballer who played as a midfielder. Club career Coming in 1935 from the local Amyna Kokkinia, Kotoulis moved to AEK Athens and managed to make 83 appearances and celebrate two championships, a Cup and an Athens championship. AEK had imposed itself on their opponents, it had won the last two championships and created in retrospect the question that it would have stopped if football activities were not inevitably interrupted, due to the invasion of Greece by Italy. Kontoulis interrupted his football career in order to fight in the war. He continued playing for AEK during The Occupation taking part in unofficial tournaments, until he was arrested and executed by Nazis in 1944. International career Kotoulis played in three matches for the Greece national football team in 1938. He was also part of Greece's team for their qualification matches for the 1938 FIFA World Cup.

Emigrants From The Ottoman Empire To Greece
Emigration is the act of leaving a resident country or place of residence with the intent to settle elsewhere (to permanently leave a country). Conversely, immigration describes the movement of people into one country from another (to permanently move to a country). A migrant ''emigrates'' from their old country, and ''immigrates'' to their new country. Thus, both emigration and immigration describe migration, but from different countries' perspectives. Demographers examine push and pull factors for people to be pushed out of one place and attracted to another. There can be a desire to escape negative circumstances such as shortages of land or jobs, or unfair treatment. People can be pulled to the opportunities available elsewhere. Fleeing from oppressive conditions, being a refugee and seeking asylum to get refugee status in a foreign country, may lead to permanent emigration. Forced displacement refers to groups that are forced to abandon their native country, such as by en ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
