1788 – 1825

About

Grigorios Papaflessas, born Georgios Dimitrios Dikaios (Γεώργιος Δημητρίου Δικαίος), was a Greek patriot, priest, and government official of the old Dikaios-Flessas Family. The prefix 'papa' in the name "Papaflessas" indicates his status as a cleric since the word means "priest" in Greek. He was appointed Archimandrite in 1819. He served as Minister of Internal Affairs and Chief of Police in the government of Alexander Mavrocordatos. Papaflessas was killed during the Battle of Maniaki on May 20, 1825, fighting against the forces of Ibrahim Pasha at Maniaki, Messinia, Greece.
