Ioannis Metaxas (Greek: Ιωάννης Μεταξάς; 12 April 1871[1] – 29 January 1941) was a Greek soldier and politician, serving as Prime Minister of Greece from 1936 until his death in 1941. He governed constitutionally for the first four months of his tenure, and thereafter as the strongman of the authoritarian 4th of August Regime. Ioannis Metaxas was not a self-proclaimed fascist, but admired some of Benito Mussolini's ideas. However, he never joined the Axis, instead he remained neutral, later entering the war on the Allied side when Greece was attacked by Italy.To this day Metaxas remains a highly controversial figure in Greek history. He is reviled by some for his dictatorial rule and admired by others for his popular policies, patriotism, defiance to aggression and his military victory against Italy.
