Bucharest, and later took up his res
idence at Brazov, Transylvania,
where on April 8, he issued a pro
clamation to the Hellenic people
protesting against recent events in
Greece and claiming the right to
reign in accordance with the consti
tution of the country.
The national assembly’s action in
overthrowing the dynasty was taken
by virtually a unanimous vote and
in celebration of the coming repub
lic, Athens displayed much enthus
iasm. Preparations were begun im
mediately for the holding of aple
biscite, upon which (the assembly
had based its decision.
