Grivas- Greek Cypriot version of Kolokotronis. Also dubbed as Kolokotronis’ right testicle.
Papadopoullos- Late president of RoC and a politician much respected by TCs. Diluted version of Grivas. Hence dubbed as Kolokotronis’ left testicle.
james_mav: - a white and blue-striped living (unfortunately) organism with a vocabulary restricted to “Mogoloi”.Rumor has it that he is direct descendant of Kolokotronis (that is direct from his anus).
Enclaves- places where TCs, once upon a time (but not at west) were gleefully herded into despite numerous attempts by their fellow GCs to call them back not to abandon their governmental posts they gained by Ottoman style privileges. (Boy! They must have been masochists those TCs).
Greek National Anthem- A national Anthem much contested between two different and independent states: Greece and free and independent RoC. Authorities fear that these two might go on a war one day as to ownership rights of the anthem.

Enosis - once popular band, lead drummer went on to have a brief solo career - whole thing seems a bit dated and embarrassing now but there's the odd reunion gig for hard core fanatics.
Taxim - once popular sitcom starring some balding little fat guy who used to bully everyone - whole thing seems a bit dated and farcical now but sometimes repeated on minor channels for die hards still living in the 70s.
