'''Cyprus''' is an island nation in the Eastern [[Mediterranean Sea]]. Its capital is [[Nicosia]]. The southern part of the island is controlled by the Republic of Cyprus, which is recognized by the majority of the world and is a member of the [[European Union]] and the [[United Nations]]. The northern part has been controlled by Turkish military forces since 1974, and has been known as the [[Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus]] since 1983. However, only [[Turkey]] officially recognizes this. [https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/cy.html]
