Akrotiri
facts:
Akrotiri
and Dhekelia are two areas on the island of Cyprus that comprise the
Sovereign Base Areas Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom. The
bases were retained by the UK following the transition of Cyprus'
status from a colony in the British Empire to an independent
Commonwealth republic within the Commonwealth of Nations. The United
Kingdom retained the bases arising from the strategic location of
Cyprus in the Mediterranean Sea.
The bases are split into Akrotiri (Greek: Ακρωτήρι; Turkish: Agrotur,
along with Episkopi Garrison, is part of an area known as the Western
Sovereign Base Area or WSBA) and Dhekelia (Greek: Δεκέλεια; Turkish:
Dikelya, along with Ayios Nikolaos, is part of the Eastern Sovereign
Base Area or ESBA).
