sorry but all I see in this is ongoing inferiority complex...maybe you have to listen this song: İstanbul not constantinopolis...Turkish people are belong to İstanbul, if they want to call it apple they call it apple..I think, the problem here is not related with the name of the city but the owner of the city. Eastern rom slaves lost the city 500 hundred years ago, I suppose they need to get it 5000 years more :))
