But wait is it an island? Also, is it really an island? Could it possibly be something besides an island?

Notice how the most the commentator will say is "the Cypriots are a Greek-speaking people," loathe to forthrightly admit the Greek majority.

The most beutifull Greek island along with Crete. Proud of my island. Long lice hellenism, 3200 hellenic history in our island. Hope ottoman sovinish and imperialism will end one day.

Hello. Do you know or remember from which empire Ottoman's conquered Cyprus? Let me tell you. Not Romans. From Venetians. Then 300 years around with Ottomans... Then British. Then why you are hoping Ottoman finalize their extreme nationalism and imperialism? If you are thinking existing destiny of our homeland is because of Ottoman's, sorry need to check again.

Cyprus is uniquely Cypriot with a majority Greek population but influence from Levantine populations, Arabs and ofcourse the Ottoman empire. If only we could appreciate our uniqueness in the 60 maybe we wouldnt have been partitioned.

You forgot the Venetians, the British and Franks and that Hellenic culture influenced the Ottomans, the Arabs the British the Franks, and so on. Partition would’ve been created one way or another. It had nothing to do with Turkish and Greek Cypriots. That was just used as an excuse.

Cyprus is politically the only Greek-Turkish island in the world. First Greek, then Turkish. Why? B/c the Greek Cypriot population of the island is a multitude of the Turkish Cypriot population. Ethnically, it is the biggest of the few still existing islands in the Mediterranean with mixed Greek-Turkish population. Gökçeada, Bozcaada, Rodos and Istanköy (Turkish names) / Imbros, Tenedos, Rodos and Kos (Greek names) are the other such islands as of the early 21st century.
