In the eyes of the Greek Cypriots,…

1828 CE to 1839 CE

In the eyes of the Greek Cypriots, the Ottoman Turks have become the enemy, and this enmity serves as a focal point for uniting the major ethnic group on the island under the banner of Greek identity.

Centuries of neglect by the Turks, the unrelenting poverty of most of the people, and the ever-present tax collectors fuel Greek nationalism.

The Church of Cyprus stands out as the most significant Greek institution and the leading exponent of Greek nationalism.
