    3:49 Mount Olympus was named like that because ancient Greek Cypriots worshiped the Greek Gods. When the Achaean Greeks migrated to the island they brought their culture with them and named many places after their homeland. Cyprus was part of Ancient Greece. So, saying that they copied the name from Greece is like saying "Sicily copied Italy".

    • @SIPEROTH
      @SIPEROTH 5 місяців тому +1

      It is. That is why the supposed current one is called North Macedonia.
      The reality is the land of North Macedonia(south Macedonia is in Greece) used to be part of the ancient Macedonia but the people currently living on it are Slavs that have nothing to do with the ancient Macedonians that where another Greek tribe from the ancient city states of ancient Greece.
      Of course after breaking from Yugoslavia this people needed something to feel good about themselves and their politicians suddenly decided to sell them the illusion that they are the descendants of Great Alexander with glorious past or something despite being slavs and use the fact that they live on ancient Macedonia land to call themselves Macedonia.
      What the Greeks hated about the whole thing was that this was clearly an attempt to hijack history and claim laurels that weren't theirs but unfortunately you can't do much about what one wants to call themselves.

    Cyprus was placed under the UK's administration based on the Cyprus Convention in 1878 and was formally annexed by the UK in 1914. The future of the island became a matter of disagreement between the two prominent ethnic communities, Greek Cypriots, who made up 77% of the population in 1960, and Turkish Cypriots, who made up 18% of the population. From the 19th century onwards, the Greek Cypriot population pursued enosis, union with Greece, which became a Greek national policy in the 1950s

      In Belgium, the wallonians and flemish want to be friends. As you can see from this comment section, Greeks and turks don't.

      Greeks and Turks don't, but greek cypriots and turkish cypriots probably want to be friends

      As a Belgian myself, lol Flemish and Walloons are like little childs at the kindergarten with a dispute over a cookie. They don't like each other, they don't want to be friends, they work with each other because they have to, and they perfectly deal with it.
      Honestly, the politics are a huge mess in my country with 6 freaking goverments, but somehow it all works perfectly. It works in Belgium, it works in Bosnia, so why not in Cyprus ?
