Άγιον Όρος:
Η Αυτόνομη Μοναστική Πολιτεία του Αγίου Όρους (συντ.: Άγιον Όρος) αποτελεί αυτοδιοίκητο τμήμα του Ελληνικού Κράτους, που βρίσκεται στη χερσόνησο του Άθω της Χαλκιδικής, στη Μακεδονία. Περιλαμβάνει τις είκοσι Ιερές Μονές, τα εξαρτήματά τους και διάφορα καταστήματα και υπηρεσίες. Το καθεστώς και ο τρόπος λειτουργίας του καθορίζονται με λεπτομερή τρόπο, παράλληλα προς το Σύνταγμα της Ελλάδας, με τον Καταστατικό Χάρτη του Αγίου Όρους (Κ.Χ.Α.Ο.) της 10ης Μαΐου 1924.
Mount Athos (/ˈæθɒs/; Greek: Ἄθως, [ˈa.θos]) is a mountain in the distal part of the eponymous Athos peninsula and site of an important centre of Eastern Orthodox monasticism in northeastern Greece. The mountain along with the respective part of the peninsula have been governed as the monastic community of Mount Athos, an autonomous region within the Hellenic Republic, ecclesiastically under the direct jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. Mount Athos has been inhabited since ancient times and is known for its long Christian presence and historical monastic traditions, which date back to at least AD 800 and the Byzantine era.
