[Say goodbye to Turkey and hello to Türkiye.
The government of President
Recep Tayyip Erdoğan
has asked
the international community to recognise
Turkey by its Turkish name Türkiye,
dropping the long-standing anglicised
version that was often confused with the
famous Thanksgiving animal.
"The word Türkiye represents and expresses
the culture, civilisation, and values
of the Turkish nation in the best way," Erdoğan said.]
