<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Georgios Varnakiotis''' was a [[Greeks|Greek]] fighter and leader in the [[War of Independence]] ([[1821]] - [[1829]]).<br />
<br />
Varnakiotis was born in Varnaka in [[1780]], the grandson of [[armatolos]] [[Yiannos Varnakiotis]] who took part in the [[Orlov uprising]] of [[1770]]. <br />
<br />
By [[1800]], he took over from his father, Nikolos, as leader of the local armed band of armatoloi. As such, he took part in negotiations with other leaders ("Kapetanei") and made the acquaintance of [[Ioannis Kapodistrias]].<br />
<br />
Early in [[1821]], Varnakiotis was assigned the task of declaring western [[Roumeli]] in [[War of Independence|revolt]] against the Ottoman Empire. He did so on [[May 25]] of that year - two full months after the rest of [[Roumeli]] and the [[Peloponnese]] - most likely due to caution on his part. He then took part in the siege of Vrahori ([[Agrinio]]) which fell on [[June 11]]. <br />
<br />
In [[1822]], he took part in the [[Battle of Komboti]] and the [[Battle of Peta]]. The latter proved a costly defeat which allowed the Ottoman army, under [[Kyutahye]], to advance towards the south. Varnakiotis and his men took up positions on the hill of the Prophet Elias near Aetos and engaged the Turks. The battle which ensued ended in victory for the Greeks on [[August 10]], averting a complete disaster for the Revolt in western [[Roumeli]]. <br />
<br />
In October [[1822]], Varnakiotis was replaced by [[Markos Botsaris]] as leader of the Greek revolutionaries in western [[Roumeli]]. This was due to accusations of treason and cooperation with the enemy - charges which he denied. He fled to the [[Ionian Islands]] where he stayed until [[1827]]. At that time, he was reinstated by the leadership of the [[War of Independence|war]] effort and he took part in the last battles of the war.<br />
<br />
After Greek independence, he was promoted to "chiliarch" by Governor [[Ioannis Kapodistrias]]. In [[1830]], he was appointed Judge of the Military Court of western [[Roumeli]] and, in [[1836]], he was made Lt Colonel by [[King Otto]].<br />
<br />
He died in [[1842]] in [[Messolonghi]].<br />
