		From the Venetian period,.which ended 30 June 1797 when the French Republic took over the seven islands, very few postal items have survived, none so far showing markings other than in manuscript; a future search perhaps in existing Venetian archives may reveal the Most Serene Republic’s official postal arrangements for her Ionian Islands.
		In course of time the islanders voted to become a republic, a president was elected, a cabinet formed, ministers appointed, and war declared against Germany.
		No attempt being made by the Royalists to interfere with this situation, Kytbira remained a ‘republic’ till July 1917 when Constantine abdicated, Alexander became king and Venizelos prime minister, and the island’s allegiance returned to the Kingdom of the Greeks.

		The Power which held Gibraltar and Malta could hardly be supposed to receive a dangerous accession of strength from the acquisition of Corfu.
		We were therefore requested to undertake the protectorate of the Septinsular Republic - only a euphonious name, it must be confessed, for ruling the islands ourselves according to the dictates of our approved judgment - and we may assert that the trust has been duly discharged in the interests of Europe.

		A weak and ineffective political structure, land confiscations in northern Italy, a serious debt problem in all levels of society combined with untold wealth for a few; these and other difficulties produced a volatile and unstable society that was ripe for revolution.
		By the declaration of the Republic in 1923, as a matter of the revolution, the objective of breaking with the tradition and creating a society anew from scratch, lead to the negligence of the “classical” understanding of Turkish Music prior to the period of Selim the 3rd.
		Therefore, Turkish Music which was formerly widely educated and flourishingly spread owing to the support from the Palace became abandoned to its fate only to be educated and practiced in Public associations and the like founded by local communities.

		According to sources of the Venetian and French consular archives in Cyprus there are references of the settlement of population coming from the Septinsular Republic to Cyprus (mainly Larnaca), in the middle of the eighteenth century.
		In accordance with the treaty of the Septinsular State signed in 1800 in Constantinople, an Ionian consulate was established in Larnaca Cyprus and seems to have begun operating unofficially in 1801 and officially on 28 June 1803.
		The documents kept by the Consulate archives in Larnaca Cyprus (which derive from the National Greek Archives at Corfu) sketch the personality of the consul Panagis Angelatos of Kephalonia and his relations with other consuls as well as his friendly relationship with John Kapodistrias (as revealed by the correspond-ence between the two men).
