Been a long time gone, Constantinople. Why did Constantinople get the works?

It’s nobody’s business but the Turks’

What's interesting is that the name "Istanbul" is still Greek.

it developed in Turkish 16c. as a corruption of Greek phrase eis tan (ten) polin "in (or to) the city," which is how the local Greek population referred to it.

Someone should talk to TMBG about this.

Ehhh naming stuff after individuals just sounds very icky to me

You can take your devs vult and shove it where the sun don't shine. You've shamelessly even named yourself after a colonizer that basically started the british mandate of palestine. Your kind has done unspeakable things in west asia and you will be remembered by history as people that were rotten to the core. Future generations will be baffled as to how humans could come to the stuff that your kind did.
