        Knowimg that you are a respected news agency, I think every single employee you have heard about a city called “Istanbul” and I think you tweeted this on purpose. My conclusion: Pathetic.

        It's the name used by the orthodox church. https://www.patriarchate.org/biography  "His All-Holiness Bartholomew was elected in October 1991 as the 270th Archbishop of the 2000-year-old Church founded by St. Andrew, serving as Archbishop of Constantinople-New Rome and Ecumenical Patriarch."

        No problem, although I think it just might be the diocese that the Orthodox Church calls that, but yes Constantinople and not Istanbul.

        The region changed ownership several times including a time where byzantines took it from the Turks far before ottoman and Oguz empire. But it is what it is, come and take it if you dare or accept it.

        http://m.gazetevatan.com/amp/-1071-tezi-coktu--798220-gundem/ … You guys believe if you extinct local people, apply Genocide to 100%, everybody will believe it always belonged to you. The Turks did never do that, they preserved the buildings etc, while the byzants before destroyed in full to get rid of any evidence.
