In Greece, beauty contests have been started since 1929. And holding such a contest was considered a matter of national importance: among the spectators are not only all metropolitan and provincial secular society, but also members of the government, the Prime Minister and members of the royal family with the court. Each day of competition was discussed and commented in the national press, pages of which were full of pictures of girls.

The winner of the contest in 1930 Diplaraku Aliki was born to a prominent lawyer and received an excellent education: future Miss Europe spoke quite freely in four languages. This fact will play a huge role: Aliki Diplaraku, world-famous for its beauty and the honorary title, which awarded it a European seal - Spartan, Thais and Greek woman with a capital letter - traveled the world lecturing on ancient Greece and Greek culture, promoting their homeland and inviting his interlocutors to visit the land, the birthplace of European civilization.
