Constantinople

Istanbul

Istanbul because it is no longer the city that was formerly named Constantinople. That was populated by an entirely different people.

In fact, the origin of the word Istanbul is also in Greek. It is the common form of the word "Stanpolis" . In the Ottoman Empire, the city's name was used as "Konstantiyye", unchanged. However, the people call the city "Istanbul". Because the name "constantinople" reminds them of the Greek rule. After the proclamation of the Republic, the name of the city was changed to "Istanbul". However, the origin of the word Istanbul is actually in Greek.

The city's also has Ottoman names such as "Dersaadet". But this name was preferred instead of them.

Why do you write the same thing in all headings? You have an inferiority complex, you have to go to the psychologist.
