Excellent episode!

Just a person level about the abandoned/decrepit buildings: It has fewer to do with economics, but with an ambiguous authorized scenario. In 1974, when the island was partitioned, most Greeks remaining the north of the island (which turned Turkish), but the European Courtroom of Human Legal rights dominated consistently that they even now retain home and possession legal rights to the residences they left powering, even if North Cypriot legislation reported otherwise.

Tragically, these property disputes were/are between the greatest roadblocks to a peace settlement.
