A joyful carnival took place in "Turkish village" Faymonville in Belgium.

Belgian villagers who call themselves "Turk" for centuries wore Turkish clothes and celebrated the carnival with Turkish flags. Also many "real Turks" coming from various regions of Belgium attended the carnival.

There are Turkish flags in streets and library of Faymonville which takes place in a remote part near Arden mountains region of Belgium.

Villagers say that Turks have never lived in Faymonville, but they call themselves "Turks" for centuries, and introduced themselves as "Faymonville Turks".

According to rumors, while people were collecting money for victims suffered from Turkish occupation in Europe in 16th and 17th centuries, villagers of Faymonville refused to give money and thus they were declared "enemy of Christian world and friend of Turks". Villagers had the name of "Turk" that period.

Another rumor claims that Faymonville villagers rejected to join Crusade and fight against Turks; and then received the name "Turk".

Old villagers say that during World War II, Nazi troops which invaded and destroyed Belgium did not enter Faymonville as they saw Turkish flags in the village.

Faymonville has a soccer club named "Turkania" which has a Turkish flag on its emblem.

There r some Greeks and GCs that like to label some other Greeks and GCs as "Turks", "Turk lovers" etc.

I think it would be nice to build a village for non-Turkic Turks in South Cyprus.

Unfortunately, nearly half our country is full of illegal, real bloody Turks.

However, Greek villages are a definite must in Turkey!

[verywitty]

Do you hate legal Turks too or just the illegal ones?

I agree as about one quarter of Turkish Cypriots travel south to work with Greek Cypriots and many have Republic of Cyprus Pass Ports and clog queues to get free Health Care from Greek Cypriots.

Although what u say is irrelevant with the issue and there's no need to/u can't claim that those things were given by GCs for "free"; where does the taxes of the TC labourers and the VAT payments of TC shoppers go?

Isn't what they pay sufficient for what they get for "free"?

Their passports r RoC passports not the passports of the so-called Greek Republic of Cyprus'.

Just bcz the so-called RoC is unjustly recognized by international community, does not mean GCs give us RoC passports.

TCs r still considered as citizens of RoC, not the citizens of the so-called RoC.

As some illiterate arrogant Turkish citizens behave and tell TCs "we rescued u, we pay ur salaries."; there is no difference of some illiterate, arrogant GCs telling us "we give u free health care, we give u the passports." etc.

There r abt 2000 TCs(mostly gurbet- Zingaro) living in South Cyprus. I bet u don't even care abt those Roma people.

It's good to know that that medieval mentality survives to this day in Cyprus. Same accusations for the same reason. There was me thinking mankind has improved in the last 500 years. Fat chance.

Looks like that village in Belgium has more that its share of idiots.
