Nicosia

The divide Island of Nicosia is a slice of Greece and Turkey all on one island. The Green Zone separates the two territories. Few Countries in the world recognize Turkey’s claim to the Isle. Only Korea and Cyprus are divided states now that Germany is reunified. Some could argue that Jerusalem is divided city now that Palestine and Israel both claim it as their capital.

The blog is about the Turkish part of the island.

The terrain is dry, arid rocky desert with water surrounding all the inhabited areas.
