Dimitrios Voulgaris (Greek: Δημήτριος Βούλγαρης; 20 December 1802 – 10 January 1877)[1] was a Greek revolutionary fighter during the Greek War of Independence of 1821 who became a politician after independence. He was nicknamed "Tsoumpes" ("Τσουμπές") after the distinctive Ottoman-style robe he wore.
