      I think the blue part must be the ocean, since water is blue. Perhaps the white is Türkiye!

      If they never changed the name from Turkey we wouldn’t have this conundrum

        In Türkiye, Turkey was always called Türkiye. They just asked the rest of the world to use the Turkish word.

    i regularly forget that france is not turkiye so having this map really clears things up for me

      It’ll definitely come in handy for driving. Every time I try to drive to Turkey I end up in Barcelona

      That’s not so hard to remember! In France, turkey is called “dinde,” derived from “d’Inde” (“of India”), which is much farther east than Türkiye. So just remember that in France, Türkiye = India.

    This map should include the Turkish diaspora. Would be helpful for finding the nearest kebab shop

      That would be the part in red.

    Why don’t they include the Northern Cyprus occupied territories? Are they stuck in the 1973??

    Oh shit, it’s straight up on the front page for the MFA.

      source
      • SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        But it still doesn’t tell us if Northern Cyprus is part of Turkey or not

        “Huh. So Japan ISN’T Turkiye? TIL, I guess.”

      If someone hacks them, they need to replace that image with a picture of a turkey

    Greece will be pleased with Cypress

    • assaultpotato@sh.itjust.works ⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      The Republic of Cyprus has been independent from Greece for some time now. Cyprus wants North Cyprus back.

        TY for gracefully avoiding my egregious mistake.

        goes and reads Wikipedia

        Oh, since 1960. In that case I’ll re phrase it:

        The Republic of Cyprus will be pleased.

    Are all those green lines also Turkiye?

    source
    • Opisek@piefed.blahaj.zone ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Not many people know that, but Türkiye controls all borders across the world.

      source
  • otter@lemmy.ca ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    To be fair, wikipedia does this too and I find it helpful. The problem is the color scheme

    source
  • Anchorxiety@reddthat.com ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    What country is the big white bit?

    source
    • rmuk@feddit.uk ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Also Turkey, but less flavourful.

      source
    • MBech@feddit.dk ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      It’s both Turkey, while also not Turkey.
