At Peloponese mainly and Rumeli after 1828 not a Muslim existed, since all killed or left
Mainly Yes, but I am still wondering is it normal "all killed or left" or "Pontic Greek version of all killed or left" in Turkish Blacksea coast. All supposed to have been gone to Greece. But still some left in Turkey under the name Islam and Turk
Also my point was that there was Greek Refugees in Peloponnese. I didn't said majority as in Greek Macedonia(I told many many times in different way.)
and I prooved it
and majority of Greeks who came to fight at 1821 went back to Ottoman empire or moved to West to other European countries,
About that, word: majority, I didn't say it too. I told that there should be some Asia Minor Greeks before Population Exchange in 1923
I know it because some part of my family came to Turkey from Lesvos before Population Exchange, Probably as soon as Greeks took the island in 1912 ?
Maybe You can search and inform us
"According to an international commission sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment in 1914, when the Balkan War fighting ceased, Greece had a population of 2,6 million, and 157 000 refugees. "

Who is this refugees in 1914 ? My guess is Balkan War Asia Minor Greek refugees
And if we go back just right after Greek independence and killing Turk (or what ever). Turks did similar thing in Chios just near the Smynra / İzmir or Anatolian Greeks
Example: Greek Island, Psara
After the Independece, 1820's
A part of the population managed to flee the island, but those who did not were either sold into slavery or killed. As a result of the invasion, thousands of Greeks have met a tragic fate. The island was deserted and surviving islanders were scattered through what is now Southern Greece.
about Thessaloniki or Patra after 1860 is out of Thread,
I totally agree, but I can't resist when I see lies. Now I don't know how can I trust anyone in the forum. I can easily proof that he/she is lying with 10min web search. I guess the flag in my avatar, makes the people think that I am fool enough to believe what said to me.
but anyway Tobacco at Makedonia started after 1923 by the Pontic Greeks cultivating variety of Samsun plant,
before no Tobacco plantation existed,
How much sure are you?
"Oriental tobacco or Turkish tobacco is a highly aromatic, small-leafed variety of tobacco which is sun-cured. Historically, it was cultivated primarily in Thrace and Macedonia"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkish_tobacco
It says how many Turkish refugees Farmer (225.000), how many of tobacco farmer (95.000) and how many of Olive farmer (75,000). Also it gives information about where they came from and settled.
Tobacco History of Greece, much older then you think.
