Why is the Greek struggle for independence not considered only a local revolt?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It received cultural and emotional support across Europe
The Greek struggle against Ottoman rule attracted support from poets, artists, scholars and volunteers across Europe. Philhellenism connected sympathy for ancient Greek civilisation with the modern principle of national independence. Because the movement gained cultural and political support beyond Greece, it became part of the wider European nationalist wave. Option A is correct; the other options wrongly limit or deny its national and international significance.
