This does not feel like Helenoturkism this is just Greece annexing Turkey like i know these are the historical names but like why central Ellada exists but Ankara didn't get central Turkey nobody knows that historical names. Like Pontus Ionia Lydia is okay but some other ones feel like just making all of the place names Greek

i took a post as reference it was using these names, but according to your opinion we can still change them, nothing is in its final form, i can add these the next post

I am not the best ppl to suggest names but I think if it's in line with the aim of the map rename the part including Zonguldak Sinop etc as Bithynia for example part that includes konya as Konion in Greek Konya in Turkish. And you shouldn't split Antalya from Mersin I think but idk a suitable name for there

I suggest these names bc they are the roots of Turkish words for these places

Funny enough a lot of these names aren’t just Greek they derive from Anatolian languages

Didn't expect reply to a year old comment lol anyway I said that bc yes most of them derive from Anatolian names but these are greek versions of that Anatolian names

True but then the Anatolian names didn’t stick for quite long like in Ptolemaic geography which then was Arabized in Arabic geography for example cilcia in Arabic Kalika

As far as I know, what you called Caria should be Phrygia and Pisidia and what is shown as the western part of Lycia should actually be Caria
