The region which is now known as Greece, had been a sparsely-wooded area from ancient history on. During an approximate 2000-year timespan, reaching from the year 146 b.C. when Greece became a Roman province to 1833 when the Bavarian Prince OTTO was enthroned, the country had been subjected to Roman, Byzantinian, Franconian overlord and Venetian rule in turn. From 1446 on, they were under the Ottoman regime. A delegation of Bavarian forest officials organized the Greek forest administration and enacted the first forest laws (1836, 1838, etc.). An attempt was made to return the devastated forests to their natural use and to restock (aforest) the large areas in order to combat erosion. Following the military revolt of 1843, the Bavarian foresters were dismissed from the state administration, many returning to Bavaria. Greek forest administration was expanded along the lines of the pioneer work accomplished by the Bavarian foresters during the first 10 years of King OTTO's reign. The work was furthered not only until the Revolution of 1862, but in the following years under the reign of King GEORGE as well. 1833 to 1843 can be viewed as an early case of European development aid.
