Prompt

Script

Did a stray dog really start a war? In 1925, tensions were high between Greece and Bulgaria. One version says a Greek soldier chased his dog across the border and was shot by Bulgarian troops. Another account claims Bulgarian soldiers attacked a Greek outpost, killing a captain and a sentry. Greece demanded an apology, but Bulgaria suggested an investigation. Instead, Greek forces invaded Petrich, killing about 50 people. The League of Nations intervened, ordering Greece to withdraw and pay £45,000 in compensation. This incident remains a bizarre yet crucial diplomatic case in history! Follow for more history shorts!
