Why hasn't Greece ever tried to invade the United States in a war?

Question

I think every other major European country has had a piece of the Americas.

Spain once had Florida
Netherlands once had New York
The French had Louisiana
The Italians (mafia groups like in the Godfather & Sopranos...fagettaboud-it...those guys)
The Swedes - Once had part of Delaware and the Vikings reached Minnesota

The Germans got their piece of Ohio - one of them is Mr. Joe Wurzelbacher also known as "Joe the Plumber."

The Russians had Alaska.

The Portuguese may be the other exception....
But the Greeks???? They never had their chance to occupy the USA....

Why don't we let the Greeks try to invade the USA and we'll make it a fair war by only using swords so it's fair game.

We can fight the war on the Great Plains of America (Nebraska and Kansas) so there's tons of battlefield space.

Answer 1

We need to kidnap a woman named Helen first.

Answer 2

Not only did Russians first claim Alaska, but Alaska was actually occupied by the Japanese during WW2.



Check into the Society for Creative Anachronism. They re-enact medieval Europe, complete with knights, ladies, lords, sword fights, etc. www.sca.org

Answer 3

There are very large Portuguese communities in New England, Florida, and California. Also most of the pizza parlors that are still "Mom & Pop" joints are Greek.

There are many Viking and Renaissance Clubs around that do a lot of sparring and have mock battles. Perhaps if you joined one you would get your fill of combat.

Good Luck, and have fun!

Answer 4

Turkish troops were operating on each and each area of the border for a even as now. the information is that extra troops are crossing. If Bush were smart, he ought to inspire Turkish troops to mass alongside the border to guard Turkish electorate antagonistic to the PKK (and to carry domicile those already in Iraq). we've earned more than a number of credibility with the Kurds, and we can stress them to act.

Answer 5

Greece had a formidable navy long before the western hemisphere was known to the rest of the world. When colonization of the new world became fashionable Greece was not in the running.

Answer 6

If the Greeks ever tried to invade, all their soldiers would be put to work in bakeries and restaurants to make their delicious food for us.



They wouldn't be allowed to fight.

Answer 7

The Greeks can barely manage their own country, never mind any colonies.

Answer 8

Then we would be evil and horrible



We would still plow over them like they were 5 year olds with slingshots

Answer 9

Their togas would be flying in the wind and they'd get embarrassed about us seeing their underwear.
