On this day, 12 February 1945, the treaty of Varkiza was signed in Greece, when anti-Nazi partisans, most of whom were communists, agreed to surrender their weapons in return for amnesty and participation in politics. However the Right failed to hold up their end of the bargain and began mass arrests and killings of communists. It was a key event in the buildup to the civil war, in which the Greek government, including Nazi collaborators and supported by Britain and United States, fought the Greek resistance movements. The resistance had also been abandoned by the USSR who had made their own deal with the US and UK, in which Greece was recognised as part of the British sphere of influence in return for Eastern European countries falling within the Russian sphere. The conflict lasted for years with the eventual victory of the Right. * We only post highlights on here, for all our anniversaries follow us on Twitter or Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@workingclasshistory https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/2207875402730931/?type=3

A 1924 map of the British Empire and the route of The Empire Cruise, produced by the Royal Navy, that, uniquely, shows the obscure British Protectorate of the Sultanate of Nejd, the orange blob in the centre of Arabia, which was established by the 1915 Treaty of Darin. The Saudi state was legally an Ottoman suzerainty prior to the signing of the Treaty of Darin.

North America 123 years ago today: Nicaragua and Venezuela Crises (14 May 1895) http://omniatlas.com/maps/northamerica/18950514/ In 1894, Nicaragua annexed the Mosquito Reserve, violating a previous treaty with Britain. In response, the British occupied Corinto in an attempt to pressure Nicaragua to pay an indemnity. Meanwhile, Britain was also confronting Venezuela over its border with Guiana. Both disputes angered the United States, which insisted on its right to act as arbitrator under the Monroe Doctrine, and eventually the British backed down. #northamerica #history #welovemaps #1890s #1895 #americanhistory #canadianhistory #cuba #cubans #guyana #maps #may #may14 #mexicanhistory #mosquitocoast #nicaragua #spain #unitedkingdom #unitedstates #venezuela #map #war #venezuelacrisis #centralamerica #uk #britishempire #britain #usa (at Corinto, Managua, Nicaragua)
