Cyprus is an island west of Syria, south of Turkey and northwest of Israel. It has been the site of constant battle for control since the days of antiquity and up to the 1970s, recently resulting in its division between Turkey and Greece. Each territory has its own government and reigning president. Currently the political situation is stable; its legal system is primarily British, official languages are Greek and Turkish respectively, and many of its legal documentation is rendered in English (making it easier for foreign companies to register there).
Cyprus enjoys moderate weather 300 days a year; in summers the mid-island areas can reach 38°C. It has two mountain ranges –Kyrenia along the island’s northern coast and the Troodos which boasts the highest elevation of Mount Olympus (1952m). Between these ranges lies a fertile valley used for agriculture.
