EspañolPETROS PROTOPAPADAKIS
'Petros Protopapadakis' (Greek: Πέτρος Πρωτοπαπαδάκης) (1854-1922) was Prime Minister of Greece.
Born in 1854 on Naxos Island, Protopapadakis studied mathematics and engineering in Paris but was keenly interested in politics. He was a professor at the Scholi Evelpidon, the naval academy of Greece.
Protopadakis was elected to the Hellenic Parliament in 1902 as a member of the conservative Nationalist Party. He later joined the People's Party and served as Minister of Economy and later, in the government of Dimitrios Gounaris, he was the Justice Minister (1921-22). In 1922, during the ill-fated Greco-Turkish War, Protopapadakis was asked to form a government by King Constantine when Gounaris resigned after almost losing a vote of confidence. Protopapadakis became Prime Minister and Gounaris the Justice Minister.
Protopapadakis was later tried and executed in the so-called Trial of the Six at Goudi for his role in the disastrous conduct of that war, along with former Prime Ministers Dimitrios Gounaris and Nikolaos Stratos.
