Cyprus has been divided since 1974 when Turkish troops invaded and occupied the northern third of the island in response to a coup sponsored by the military junta then ruling Greece. Almost 45 years later, Nicosia remains the world's last divided capital. (Photo by Barbara LABORDE / AFP) (Photo credit should read BARBARA LABORDE/AFP via Getty Images)
