You can take your devs vult and shove it where the sun don't shine. You've shamelessly even named yourself after a colonizer that basically started the british mandate of palestine. Your kind has done unspeakable things in west asia and you will be remembered by history as people that were rotten to the core. Future generations will be baffled as to how humans could come to the stuff that your kind did.

It's from a song by The Four Lads
Why they changed it, I can't say. Maybe people just liked it better that way?
What's interesting is that the name "Istanbul" is still Greek.
it developed in Turkish 16c. as a corruption of Greek phrase eis tan (ten) polin "in (or to) the city," which is how the local Greek population referred to it.
NEEEEEERD!
.... actually I was rolling into the comments to say the same thing. Right on brother
Can't go back to Constantinople.
Someone should talk to TMBG about this.
They very clearly stated it was nobodies business but the Turks
Yeah, but it seemed like they didn't really understand the reasoning behind it, so perhaps someone more authoritative should be consulted.
Perdóname but until you find a giant, no one is not authoritative than Those Who Might Be
What makes you think I don't know any giants?
The ones I know don't speak, um, human.
