Elisabeth of Bavaria (24 December 1837 – 10 September 1898) was Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary as the spouse of Franz Joseph I. As such, she held also the titles Queen of Bohemia, Queen of Croatia and others. From an early age, she was called “Sisi” by family and friends (not "Sissi" as in the film or in the animated series). While Elisabeth had limited influence on Austro-Hungarian politics, she has become a historical icon. Elisabeth is considered to have been a non-conformist who abhorred conventional court protocol and at the same time a tragic figure; she has inspired filmmakers and theatrical producers alike. You'll hear "Kalimera" all over Greece, from your hotel staff to people you see on the street. "Kalimera" means "Good day!" or "Good morning!" It comes from kali, meaning beautiful or good, and mena, meaning "day". How the "mena" became a "mera" is a mystery.
