Hello, Cyprus is in European Union and the timezone should be under Europe. If that's not the case why Cyprus is not in Asia Union? Do we have magic lines in the map that show us to be Asia people ? :) Regards, Glafkos Charalambous On Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 9:28 AM, Martin Jerabek < martin.jerabek@isis-papyrus.com> wrote:

This issue was discussed on the tz mailing list in September 2000, and again in May 2004. The resolution in 2000 was to add Europe/Nicosia as an alias for Asia/Nicosia. The accompanying comment reads, "for various reasons many users expect to find [Cyprus] under Europe." When the issue was discussed before, most reference sources placed Cyprus in Asia.
Cyprus is a member of the European Union (since 2004), and its official currency is the Euro, so I think it is reasonable for people to expect to find Cyprus under Europe.
