Cyprus was ceded from the Ottoman Empire to the United Kingdom in 1878 and became a full British colony in 1914. After the Second World War, the debate on the independence of Cyprus accelerated. The Republic of Cyprus gained its independence in 1960, but the British continued their existence on the island with two military and some other privileges.
English Law and Cyprus:
Cyprus' tradition of using the English legal system stems from the long years of the island's adoption of English law as a British colony. After the period of independence, the codification of the laws of the Republic of Cyprus formed English law. The legal infrastructure, court system and rules are largely based on the British model.
English Law and Southern Cyprus:
Southern Cyprus is the semi-officially sanctioned continuation of the Republic of Cyprus and continues to adopt the British legal system. As throughout the island, Southern Cyprus maintains the British legal tradition and applies various practices of this law. Therefore, in general, legal processes, courts and rules are generally arranged according to the English model.
Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus:
The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus exists only as a regional region approved by Turkey. The impact of English law and loss of administration in this region is present, but due to political and social dynamics, local orders and rules also have an impact.
As a result, the resilience of the Islands is still strengthened in Cyprus due to the communications between the English rules of law and administration. However, its two administrative regions have local orders and orders, and the political ranges and cultural differences of these regions are important features of the structural structures. House Prices: The real estate sector in Cyprus, which is based on the English legal system, has also been shaped in parallel with this tradition. English style home designs, housing projects and real estate transactions can reflect these influences. In addition, the influence of the British on the local property market can also affect housing prices. Especially in touristic areas, the dense settlement of British citizens or the purchase of holiday homes can increase the housing prices in these areas.
Car Prices: The influence of the English legal system can also be seen on the car trade and car prices. Sales contracts and business practices governed by English law can affect the auto industry. Also, factors such as imports from the UK or the representation of British brands in Cyprus can affect car prices.
Pound (Sterling): In an area with a British legal system, the effect on the British pound (pound) exchange rate may be more pronounced. If Cyprus uses the British pound as the local currency or trades with the British pound, the fluctuations of the British economy and the fluctuations in the value of the pound may also affect the economy of Cyprus. This, in turn, can affect large purchases such as homes and cars.
