Changes

Finally, on [[April 1]], [[1955]], after all previous actions had failed, the Cypriots resorted to armed struggle forming the military organisation [[EOKA]] whose one and only aim was Enosis with Greece. The British refused to give in and, in [[1960]], following the treaties of London and Zurich, the Republic of Cyprus was proclaimed. As Samos and Crete had also gone through a period of independence prior to their unification with the mother country, many Cypriots also hoped that would be the case with them. To date, Enosis in their case has not been achieved.
