- Abstract
Ali Pasha, the Governor of Ioannina between 1788 and 1822, a political actor with the talent of adopting to the conditions of his era, he acquired power to act as "state within state". As the Ottoman administration could not tolerate such strong dominance, he was considered a rebel by the central government. Ali Pasha in his struggle for personal dominance cooperated with various groups and resulted to the formation of an Albania-Greek alliance. In the early stages of the rebellion the main purpose of his Greek allies was rather the independence of Greece than the well-being of Ali Pasha. However, this real intention was kept secret until the Greek rebellion started. In the meantime, while the Ottoman forces were dealing with Ali Pasha, a convenient setting for Greek rebellion in 1821 was created and the rebellion started. The Albanian- Greek alliance dissolved soon after the Greek uprising and previous Greeks allies of the Pasha started joining the ranks of the rebels. These people, named as "pro-Ali Pasha" would staff most of the military and administrative apparatus of the newly established Greek State.
