Akrotiri, Coastal village in Limassol District, Cyprus

The establishment of British military presence in Akrotiri marks a significant chapter in Cyprus history, leading to its current status within sovereign base areas.
Greek remains the primary language in Akrotiri, while English serves as a secondary language due to the substantial British military community presence.
