*#Two de facto states currently exist on the island of Cyprus: the Republic of Cyprus (ROC), predominantly Greek in character, occupying the southern two-thirds of the island, which is the original and still the internationally recognized de jure government of the whole island; and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), proclaimed unilaterally Nov. 15, 1983, on territory originally secured for the Turkish Cypriot population by the July 20, 1974, intervention of Turkey. Only Turkey recognizes the TRNC. Provision of separate data does not imply recognition of either state’s claims but is necessitated by the lack of unified data.
*#Twenty-four seats reserved for Turkish Cypriots are not occupied.
*#The new Turkish lira (YTL) was removed from circulation on Jan. 1, 2010, replaced by the Turkish lira.
*#Includes 160,000–170,000 immigrants (mostly from Turkey); excludes 3,000 British military in the Sovereign Base Areas (SBA) in the ROC and 991 UN peacekeeping troops.
