Where none existed. terraced plots were hacked from the mountain sides or gorges. Unfortunately. the land could not support its own people. Emigrants by the hundreds of thousands left their homeland and settled in other parts of the globe. Those who came to America brought with them their religion and their crafts. Throughout the United States. Greeks and descendents of Greek immigrants form an integral part of the community. be it mayor. representative. restaurateur. or wine grower. These people of Greek origin have been told the story of how their forefathers fought for liberty during the war of independence in their homeland. They know that the Greek nation celebrates its independence day on March 25. the day when the glorious struggle for freedom began.
