	Greece - MSN Encarta
		By the end of the 19th century, Greece’s expansionist ambitions were focused on the Ottoman territories of Macedonia (located to the north of Thessaly) and Crete.
		Greece suffered a crushing defeat in a short-lived war with the Ottomans, and the Great Powers forced it to pay compensation to the Ottomans and to accept small modifications to the Greek-Ottoman frontier.
		The Cretans’ determination to join Greece was undiminished, however, and in 1908 the Cretan assembly proclaimed the union of Crete with Greece.

		At a different level, the same goes for Greece’ s sense of belonging to the West: for decades it was taken for granted, with second thoughts on the part of Greeks; now the self-redefinition of the West along exclusionary lines (vide Huntington) risks to leave Greece altogether out.
