Constantinople= named after the first emperor of the Byzantine empire.
Istanbul= comes from the greek phrase Εις την Πόλη, which means In the City.
So both names are from Greek origin, is like saying water is wet or something 😂
Yup! gemsofgreece pointed it out! But non-Greek speakers never ask, they just speculate 😂 "ohhh yeah I wonder what this magical new word means!" IT'S GREEK WITH A TURKISH ACCENT MY FRIEND
