Which is now called Turkiye

0 comments

It was always called Turkiye in Turkish.

I promise to use it in English as soon as Germany becomes Deutschland and Japan becomes Nippon.

I know that this was tongue-in-cheek, but I could imagine living in a world where naming countries as they name themselves is the dominant linguistic convention. Why not call Japan Nippon in a sentence.
