Cyprus (The Era of Relative Peace)

The Republic of Cyprus is a country located in the Mediterranean Ocean, occupying the island of Cyprus. Being the third most populous island in the Mediterranean,  it is located south of Turkey, west of Syria and Lebanon, northwest of Israel, north of Egypt, and southeast of Greece.

The island also hosts the Sovereign Bases of Akrotiri and Dhekelia of the United Kingdom's Royal Air Force, as per an agreement in 1960.

World War III
Cyprus supported the Allies during the First Battle of the Mediterranean. Partly, Cyprus found itself in the war because the island was the location of RAF Akrotiri and RAF Dhekelia, which meant that both British and NATO planes kept flying back and fourth while engaging Soviet or any Warsaw Pact forces in the area.
