Ioannis Vithynos was the Ottoman-appointed Prince of Samos from 1904 to 1906.
The political situation when his reign began was agitated. He made it even worse by repeating the same mistake as his predecessors: he supported only one political party. Embezzlements, thefts, murders, revenge and political factionalism were common during his reign. The parties accused each other through the press. In order to make things a little better, he imposed censorship on the press.
Then elections came and the two parties competed with each other in violence, mischief and illegal agitation. The newly elected Parliament blamed Vithynos for the politicians' mistakes and overthrew him.
