It's weird they use this as their "English-language" name but I don't really have a point, just hoping to watch a thread become a comment shit show
It makes just as much sense as calling it Türkiye.
Türkiye

The 2 dots on the "u", I think they are mandatory in English too (not so sure, though)
Yes it’s mandatory by law, there are penal sanctions and chance to get blacklisted by Türkiye and Erdoğan if you don’t abide.
I'm too punctilious, I see it now
