if i understand correctly cyprus is ethnically pretty different than the main land east of you right?

I assume you mean genetically not ethnically? Genetically we are closely related to the Palestinians and the Druze.

If you did mean ethnically and not genetically, I can also elaborate, but I'll wait as I don't want to bombard you.

well i was curious bc i thought there ethnically most were greek (ish?)

ethnicity is VERY complex in the ME — let's just say I am not Greek and never will be. Because it's colonisation.

Nothing against being Greek — I just don't happen to be. Here's a good read: http://cyprus-mail.com/2013/12/22/1963-is-still-a-historical-minefield/ …

Turkish Cypriot = Cyp who speaks Cyp Turkish & Muslim. Greek Cyp = Cyp who speaks Cyp Greek & Xtian Orthodox.
