Nea Smyrni is a municipality and a town in South Athens, Greece. It was named after the former Greek city Smyrna (today's ?zmir in Turkey), whence many refugees arrived and settled in the Nea Smyrni area following the 1922 catastrophe of Asia Minor and the Burning of Smyrna which left big parts of the city's christian population massacred by Turkish mobs and military, during the Greco-Turkish war.
