There was no king of Greece. The Greek world was always a series of independent city-states each with their own government.

In early times there were many petty kings ruling small kingdoms. These were progressively overthrown by the aristocracy (oligarchs), who were progressively replaced by tyrants and democracies.

After the Macedonians took over the eastern Greek world and the Persian Empire, Alexander's successors established several kingdoms we today call the Hellenistic kingdoms.
