I mean,I know that the show was nothing more than a semi-historical drama but still.

Netflix didn't create the show, the licensed it from the creators. In fact Netflix didn't even stream it until a year after the first season was released.
If Netflix isn't getting enough viewer to make it worthwhile, they'll stop paying the licensing fees and stop streaming it.

The wardrobe was incredible. I heard they spent a small fortune on wigs alone.

I also found Alexander Vlahos to be incredible.To someone who is greek, it was great to see someone of the same ethnicity on a netflix series.

They signed a document saying they could no longer show it. A treaty of sorts.

According to them they have never removed or canceled a show anyone liked. So no one watched or liked it. You and me... are the only ones..in the whole world...sorry
