Imbros and Tenedos
From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki
Imbros and Tenedos, also known by their official names since 1970[1][2] of Gökçeada and Bozcaada, are two neighboring North Aegean islands which belong to Turkey. They form the districts of Gökçeada and Bozcaada, in Çanakkale Province.
They are or have been treated or considered together for various purposes at different times:
- in the Treaty of Lausanne of 1923, which awarded them to Turkey, under special provisions for their Greek population
- in a 2008 Council of Europe report[3]
- as a Metropolis of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople[4]
