What Cypriot city is divided into Greek and Turkish areas?
The answer you are looking for is NICOSIA, but the phrasing is awkward.Nicosia is a Cypriot city that is partially occupied by the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), a country that is seen by most countries and analysts to be a territorial extension of the Republic of Turkey. The southern part of the city, which is still part of the Republic of Cyprus is not a "Greek" area anymore than the rest of Cyprus is a "Greek" area. While the majority of Cypriot citizens are Greek Cypriots, there are Turkish Cypriots that live throughout the Republic of Cyprus. Conversely, because of the Turkish Invasion in 1974 that set up the TRNC there are practically no Greek Cypriots in the TRNC and a very high number of Turkish citizens (who have no Cypriot ancestry) along with Turkish Cypriots.As the city is controlled by the TRNC and the Republic of Cyprus, neither part is directly controlled by Turkey or Greece.

Where did Cyprus's travel to?
The Cypriots travel wherever they please. They have airlines, ships, etc. The Cypriots are predominantly of Greek original, with a substantial portion being of Turkish origin, due to the island being conquered and occupied by the Ottoman Empire during its history. Then enter the British, and, when all is said and done with them, you end up with the current situation in Cyprus, and the breakaway Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, which was in response to the Greeks attempting a military coup of Cyprus in 1974 for the sake of Enosis - the annexation of Cyprus as part of Greece - preempted by attacks on the Turkish Cypriot population by nationalist Greek Cypriots under the direction of then-president Archbishop Makarios. But that's a long story there.
Is Cyprus part of UN?
Yes it is, although you have to remember that the island is divided ever since the Turkish invasion of 1974, with the Turks holding the Northern section. Although this declared itself to be a Republic in 1983, it is not recognised as a legitimate state by any other nation except Turkey itself (which created it in the first place), so the Northern part is NOT a UN member.
