More about Cyprus
Population
When it was founded in 1960, the Republic of Cyprus had 573,600 residents, of whom 77% were Greeks (441,700) and 18% were Turks (104,900), who lived scattered across the island. As a result of the 1974 war, displacement, displacement and resettlement completely changed the pattern of population distribution. Around 160,000 Greek Cypriots from the Turkish-occupied north had to be housed in the south of the island, and around 50,000 Turkish Cypriots were resettled in the north. The number of “settlers” who moved from Turkey to the north of the island, which is probably around 120,000, is controversial. Since many Turkish Cypriots have emigrated in recent years, the population-political weight of these settlers is relatively large. Official (Greek) statistics estimate the number of Turkish Cypriots at around 300,000.
The island has an average population density of 128 residents / km 2.

Religion
There is freedom of religion. The constitution of the Republic of Cyprus guarantees this in Article 18, the constitution of the Turkish Cypriot North within the framework of its catalog of fundamental rights. On the basis of Article 2 of the Constitution, the Greek Cypriot section places the Christianity of the Greek Orthodox, Syrian Maronite, Armenian Orthodox and Roman Catholic denominations and Sunni Islam as religions historically rooted in Cyprus under special state protection. The Turkish Cypriot part follows a secular understanding of the state (Article 2), on the basis of which all religious communities have the same legal status vis-à-vis the state.
The largest religious community in terms of numbers is the Cypriot Orthodox Church, to which (2011) with 89.08% the vast majority of the Greek Cypriot population belongs. About 5.7% of the population in the south of Cyprus profess to other Christian denominations: 0.29% belong to the Armenian Church, 3.36% to the Catholic Church (including 0.45% Maronites) and together about 2% of the Anglican Church (Jerusalem Province and Middle East) and diminishing evangelical (Pentecostal) communities.
The Turkish Cypriots profess almost completely to Sunni Islam (predominantly the Hanefi school of law), which is represented by their own spiritual head based in Nicosia. The proportion of the population of Muslims living in the Greek southern part of the island is (2011) 1.82%.
The existence of a Jewish community is first documented in the 1st century AD; today there are only a few Jews left in Cyprus.
