Konstantinos Nider (1865 - 1943) was a Greek military figure of the early part of the 20th Century.

Maj. Gen. Nider was commander-in-chief of the Greek forces that took part in the Ukraine Expedition in the aftermath of World War I and the Bolshevik Revolution. He led two divisions of the A' Army Corps that landed in Crimea in January 1919. The Greek troops were attached to the French Army in the sector.

Afterwards, Nider took part in the Greco-Turkish War (1919-1922) and he served as Minister of the Military in 1926.
