The Hellenic (Greek) Parliament overlooks the Syntagma Square in the center of Athens. The parliament was established in 1843 and a revision of the Constitution since that time has allowed the citizens of Greece stronger human rights including the right to vote and the ability to challenge or contest the workings of the government. This building was used as the Royal Palace until the abolition of monarchy in 1974. |
