Best Answer

Since 1900, there have been three capital changes in the Middle East.

  1. Israel moved its administrative center from Tel Aviv to West Jerusalem in 1950 (although Tel Aviv was never explicitly named as the Israeli capital).
  2. Aden ceased to be a capital when South Yemen and North Yemen became one united country of Yemen with the North Yemen capital of Sana'a.
  3. The Republic of Turkey founded its capital in Ankara in 1923 to remove themselves from the Ottoman legacy in Istanbul.
