Abstract	The island of Cyprus has hosted many civilizations and cultures in different periods of history. The two major communities living on the island today are Greeks and Turks. In addition, small groups of Armenians, Maronites, Latin Catholics, Anglicans, Jews and the new religious entities, such as Jehovah’s Witnesses, Bahais and Protestants live there. The study aims at revealing the situation before 1571, when the Ottoman Empire conquered the island, the conquest of the island by the Ottomans and its aftermath, the period of British rule between 1878-1960, and the religious situation since 1960. Orthodox Greek people, who constitute the majority of the island population today, had the chance to live with the conquest of the island by the Ottoman State, and thanks to the Ottoman Empire their churches and monasteries were returned to them. After the attack of Cypriot Greeks towards Muslim Turks following the establishment of British rule in 1878, it was only a natural reflex for these once Ottoman citizens to protect themselves, and to undergo a process of nationalization in the wake of the collapse of Ottoman Empire and the consequent removal of khalifat. In this process, the appellation of Cypriot Muslim gave place to Cypriot Turk.
