The Greek plebiscite of 1920 ensured and affirmed the dominance of the anti-Venizelos parataxis. King Constantine I returned, after achieving an obviously overwhelming majority, albeit questioned by the supporters of the Liberal Party, while Eleftherios Venizelos, maintained his silence, being in voluntary exile abroad.
Constantine I was loathed by the Entente powers (England, France, Italy) because of his pro-German stance during World War I and his at the time enthusiastic return marked all the tragic events that followed in the Asia Minor campaign (see Greco-Turkish War (1919-1922)).
