Please note that due to limitations on the use of fonts on internet pages & the scarcity of Turkish fonts on machines generally, the webmaster has had to anglicize names & addresses in texts and maps. For this I sincerely apologize to my visitors, and the people and government of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. - The webmaster: Hans Doeleman, journalist/cartographer. |
