In 1826, the Greeks were assisted by the British Empire, Kingdom of France, and the Russian Empire, while the Ottomans were aided by their North African vassals. The war led to the formation of modern Greece, which would be expanded to its modern size in later years. The revolution is celebrated by Greeks around the world as independence day on 25 March. The Hellenic Gendarmerie was the largest and most important security force in Greece for 150 years. It was established by royal decree on June 1, 1833, the day of King Otto's birthday, as the Royal Gendarmerie Corps and was later renamed the Hellenic Royal Gendarmerie and then the Hellenic Gendarmerie, where it remained until 1984 when it was merged by law with the City Police into a single police force under the modern name Hellenic Police (HEL.AS.).
