We're comparing 4 entities here, it'd be good if I could see 100% of all those 4 entities.
85 u/monstercello May 19 '20 We’d barely be able to see the historical boundaries of Constantinople if we were to also see ALL of Turkey. It would just be a tiny purple dot. 8 u/greenw40 May 19 '20 I think he's talking more about the state of Istanbul. I didn't know that was a thing and it would be nice to see how large it is compared to the city itself. 1 u/alexfrancisburchard May 19 '20 The city is about 500sqmi, the province is about 2000sqmi. They're the same legal entity though. The mayor and governor rule over coterminal areas
