At present, five entities control or have claims to parts of this country;Turkey, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, the Republic of Cyprus, the British Royal Air Force, and the United Nation.

Yes, the Ottoman Empire, at one point, controlled Cyprus.
The answer you are looking for is TURKEY, but the question improperly poses its premise. Greece is not in a conflict with Turkey over Cyprus. Turkey is in a conflict with the Greek Cypriots (the population of Cyprus which is ethnically Greek) over control of the island.
Considering the the national curreny of Cyprus is the Euro, it would be better to use Euros in Cyprus than British Pounds.
The United Nations have a long standing commitment on Cyprus. Several decades ago, Turkey and Greece fought for control of the island. The UN stepped in to stop the fighting.
Yes they can. The British High Commission in Cyprus gives the following information: "British and other foreign nationals who have entered Cyprus through the north (e.g. Ercan airport) are considered by the Government of the Republic of Cyprus to have entered Cyprus through an illegal port of entry. The Government of the Republic of Cyprus reserves the right to fine EU (including British) citizens for illegal entry if they cross into the south. In practice, their current policy is not to do so." This is correct.
