While there is no official capital, Brussels is considered the unofficial capital of the European Union. Frankfurt could be considered the EU's economic capital as it houses the European Central Bank. Strasburg, where the European Parliament sits, would then be the EU's political capital.
The capital of Turkey is Ankara which is located in central Anatolia. Ankara was preferred to Istanbul, which had been the capital of the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires for hundreds of years, because Istanbul was considered vulnerable to potential enemy attacks and also housed much of the Ancien Regime Intelligentsia. The new nation of Turkey chose Ankara as its capital as it was located in the middle of Anatolia (Asian Turkey).Ankara is the capital of the Republic of Turkey.
No European capital sits in Europe and Asia. Istanbul is a city that straddles the two continents and it is often mistaken to be the capital of Turkey, although the true capital is Ankara and lies completely in Asia.
