 Constantine was faced with the difficulty of determining officially where Greece's support lay once war was underway. This was complicated by the fact that his government, led by [[Eleftherios Venizelos]], was pro-Allied and the fact that the Entente Powers were in possession of naval dominance of the [[Mediterranean]].
-Constantine's sympathies emerged during the Allies' disastrous [[Battle of Gallipoli]].  Despite popular support of [[Eleftherios Venizelos|Venizelos]] amongst the people, Constantine dismissed Venizelos as [[Prime Minister]] in [[October]] [[1915]] due to his increasing support for the Allies, and in his stead placed a succession of puppet premiers, all swayed by the King. [[Eleftherios Venizelos|Venizelos]] retired to [[Thessalonica]] where with the support of the Allies he established a provisional revolutionary government, much to Constantine's dissatisfaction. With civil war apparently imminent in [[1916]] Constantine sought, from Germany, firm promises of naval, military and economic assistance - without success.

 He left Greece on [[June 11]], [[1917]] as he had to abdicate because of his pro-German sentiments and was succeeded to the throne by his second son [[King Alexander|Alexander]] as acting King. He went into exile to Switzerland. Alexander died on [[October 25]], [[1920]] and, following a plebiscite, Constantine returned as king on [[December 19]], [[1920]]. He abdicated the throne again on [[September 27]], [[1922]], following Greek military defeats against the Turks in [[Anatolia]] and [[Smyrna]] and was succeeded by his eldest son, [[King George II|George II]].
