Do you agree that since just about all the nations on this planet referred to themselves as:
British from the name of the land they are occupy......Britain
Americans from the name America
French from the name France
Russians from the Russia
Hellenes from the word hellas.........and so forth..........
we....Cypriot People should be calling ourselves CYPRIOTS from the word CYPRUS. (the island)
Instead of... Turkish Cypriots or Greek Cypriots which refers to Turkey's and Greece's nationals living in Cyprus?
Constructive and civilised comments please!

Going quickly back to the original thread - Britains most definately don't call themselves British. The people of England have this word indoctrinated into them and feel guilty about calling themsleves 'English'. However Scottish and Welsh are adamantly 'Scottish' or 'Welsh' - not British - and why not??? Good thing to retain your heritage.
This happens all over the world. Some cultures simply get on with their lives together better than many Cypriots. Time to get over yourselves and move on. Never forget - learn from it but move on.
