Battle of Navarino - Battle of Navarino

A naval battle (October 20, 1827) fought during the Greek War of Independence (1821-29). The combined fleet of Britain, France, and Russia under Admiral Edward Codrington (1770-1851), who was assisting Greece, destroyed the combined Turkish-Egyptian fleet led by Ibrahim Pasha off the coast of Navarino, a port city on the southwestern tip of the Peloponnese. This battle dealt a decisive blow to the Ottoman naval power and marked the achievement of the Greek national independence movement.
