What Nationality are people from Cyprus or Cypriots Eg Greek or Turkish?

In: Cyprus, Greece [Edit categories]

Answer:

They are both because Greek Cypriots sometimes speak Turkish and Turkish Cypriots sometimes speak Greek. But Turkish Cypriots always have a different accent to people from Turkey because they don't like to think of themselves as Turkish people, they think of themselves as Cypriot's. Greek Cypriots are the same.
