Türkiye, straddling Europe and Asia across the Bosphorus Strait, is uniquely positioned as a transcontinental country. Its diverse landscape, ranging from Mediterranean coastlines to eastern steppes dotted with ancient ruins, attracts visitors from around the world. Historically, Türkiye was a key stop on the Silk Road, and its rich cultural legacy is reflected in the remnants of Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman civilizations, showcased in world-renowned ruins and monuments.

Political and Economic Integration

As a democratic, constitutional republic, Türkiye has actively engaged with Western institutions, being a member of organizations like the Council of Europe, NATO, the OECD, and the G20. The country has also cultivated strong ties with the Middle East and Central Asia through the Organization of the Islamic Conference and the Economic Cooperation Organization.

Türkiye began full membership negotiations with the European Union in 2005, following its status as an associate member of the European Economic Community since 1963 and its customs union agreement with the EU in 1995. The country’s currency is the Turkish lira, and Turkish is the official language.
