During its occupation of western Anatolia, Greece was in need of a large number of soldiers. A certain part of this need was attempted to be fulfilled with the conscription of Ottoman Greeks. For this purpose, Greece initiated an intense “Megali Idea” propaganda to takes Ottoman Greeks under arms, who were Ottoman citizens. The Athens Government called upon the Ottoman Greeks in the occupied territories with mandates issued following the occupation of Izmir. Greek nationalist orators, who were sent to the region under the Greek occupation, encouraged Greeks to join the Greek army in city and town squares. When Athens takes Ottoman Greeks under arms, the greatest support came from the Fener Greek Orthodox Patriarchate. The Patriarchate used religious arguments to force the Ottoman Greeks to join the Greek army. As a result, Ottoman Greeks contributed 35,000 soldiers to the Greek occupation army, which included several Ottoman Greek-only troops
