If you look on a map you'll see that the closest country is Turkey, followed by Syria, Lebanon, Israel, and Greece. As for "European": the English language Wikipedia describes it as "Eurasian" which begs the question. The Dutch language Wikipedia says that "Geographically it is part of Asia but for political and cultural reasons it is often considered part of Europe". It might be best to add a link under Europe so Cyprus is shown there too (i.e., both under Asia and under Europe). paul

Cyprus is a Europe island near greece and is consider within Europe.
It is wrong displayed under Asia
Please correct and make Europe Cyprus, Nicosia (City)
