Ciekawostka o nazwie

Türkiye (formerly Turkey in English) requested all international organisations use 'Türkiye' as their official name in 2022. The change was accepted by FIFA and the UN. The name derives from the Türk people and '-iye' (land of). The 'ü' has no English equivalent — lips rounded for 'oo', tongue position for 'ee'.
