Turkey DEAD

[Soldi]

Turkey wants to be called Türkiye in rebranding move https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-61671913

 

[Diddy]

Will Turkey Burgers still be called that?

 

[RS]

You got my hopes up for a second there.

 

[Madison]

Disappointing title.

 

[RS]

Turkey dead and divided between Greece, Armenia, Georgia and the two new independent states of Kurdistan and Assyria (the latter mostly so that @RaspberrySwirl can send her relatives back to somewhere safe but far away). Cyprus gets back its north, Bulgaria gets nothing.

Oh and Sweden and Finland can join Nato.

Much better.

 

[Madison]

If their little dictator truly wanted us to adopt a new name, he shouldn’t have picked one with an umlaut.

I’d settle for implementation of the Treaty of Sevres.

Well only if the strait zone gets to be independent and the Byzantine (mini) Empire restored.

That might complicate things in Eurovision though. Greece/Cyprus would have to share their 12s with the Byzantine empire.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

I like the idea of ASSyria

 

[COB]

The Topic is Assyria

We need Smyrna in the mix too.

 

[RS]

We need Smyrna in the mix too.

Free State of Smyrna.

I can see it becoming a poor man’s Singapore or Dubai of the east Mediterranean.

 

[Kratz]

Volga German Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic NOW!

 

[Marina Salty]

Free State of Smyrna.

There would be implications in Eurovision voting though

 

[Phoenix]

Oh look the Europeans are dividing the Middle East/Asia again

 

[Marina Salty]

I think Norway will have no problem to adopt to the change, they were always keen in being as close as possible to the native versions of national country names. But I doubt anyone else will follow.

 

[ButterTart]

Can they change Istanbul back to Constantinople while they’re at it?

 

[Nancy]

Does it rhyme with hola mi bebébé?

[AlgoAlex]

I've not been a big fan of Turkey since I knocked a tooth out in a surfing accident there.

Now you won’t even have to find it in a map

 

[Nancy]

Well, I say 'surfing accident' ... it was a surfboard that I stood up on in a very calm swimming pool and then fell off.

 

[Nancy]

Now you won’t even have to find it in a map

Yeeeeeeeeeah It's east of Italy and quite big. I remember that.

Actually, I think I always knew it was big because it took an hour to get from the airport to the resort.

 

[rhythmbandit]

I've been going to Turkey semi-occasionally since 2014 and all the airports have big signs up with 'Welcome to Türkiye on them, and it's in most restaurants, road signs, hotels and so on, so it's no surprise.

 

[Kratz]

It is pronounced the same?

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Are they going to ban music videos like this under the new rules (they count 'em)?



Fiercely heterosexual Tarkan happily married with with children now. I guess those compromising photos that were stolen from his NYC pad were... planted there.
