- Mediterranean States
-
The Mediterranean States are the two countries of Cyprus and Malta. They are the only two Island countries in the Mediterranean Sea. The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus would be a third, but no nation besides Turkey has recognized it as independent. The Mediterranean States are not to be confused with the Mediterranean-bordering countries of Southern Europe such as Italy, Greece and Turkey, although Malta is considered very closely tied historically and culturally with Italy, and Cyprus is as such for Greece and Turkey.
