Which two groups were involved in the civil war in Cyprus?

There was no Cypriot Civil War because the force that opposed the Cypriot government was primarily a foreign power: Turkey. Certainly Turkish Cypriots helped the foreign army, but it was primarily Turkey's invasion of the island. The Turko-Cypriot Conflict was between Cyprus, ruled by the predominant Greek Orthodox Cypriot population, and the Turks of Turkey and Turkish Cypriots.


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.

What government does the international community recognize which government on Cyprus?

Greek Cypriot or the Republic of Cyprus. There are two governments on Cyprus: the Republic of Cyprus and the Turkish Republic of North Cyprus. While the North expressly claims that it is Turkish, the South does not make any religious or ethnic claims. In fact the border at Nicosia is open to Turkish Cypriots from the North who wish to take part in advantages that the government of Cyprus has, such as membership in the European Union. When people say the "Greek Cypriot government" they are referring to the Republic of Cyprus since it has a Greek Cypriot majority, but the government of the Republic of Cyprus is not exclusivist in any way. To specify in simple words, The "Turkish Republic of North Cyprus" it is reffered with " due to the fact that it is not regognised as a goverment or state what so ever by UN and international law
