Summary/Abstract: Greece doubtlessly was the leading country that caused trouble to the Ottoman Empire during the period 1919-1922 when the National Campaign continued. Greece, a small country, had to defeat the Turkish Nation whose population was more than the Greek in the war in order to have a say in the Anatolian territory. However, it is impossible to achieve this without having the support of the Greek in Anatolia. Therefore, Greece tried to supply soldiers from the Greek living in Anatolia considerably during the National Campaign. Whereas some of the Greek in Anatolia took place on the side of Greek Troops against the Turkish Troops, some others resisted not to fight against their neighbors with whom they lived together for centuries. This study handles the difficulty that the Greek in Anatolia had and good relationships that they established with the Turkish.
