I don't know. Any thoughts.

I’m going with Colorado. Montana is beautiful too, comes in second

I recently took a tour of this country that spans Europe and Asia,. Someone on the tour asked why they changed the name from Turkey to Turkiye. Our guide informed us that it's been Turkiye for many years, but most Westerners spell it like the Thanksgiving bird.

What do you call this interesting country that used to be the basis of the Ottoman Empire?
