	Imbros - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Imbros, officially known as Gökçeada (older name in Turkish: İmroz; Greek: Ίμβρος – Imvros), is the largest island of Turkey, part of Çanakkale Province.
		Turkish policy consistently undermined both the spirit and letter of this commitment: The islands of Imbros and Tenedos were each given an official Turkish name (Gökçeada and Bozcaada respectively), schools were required to teach exclusively in Turkish, and the local Greek population was marginalized in multiple ways.
		Most of the former Greeks of Imbros and Tenedos are in diaspora in Greece, the United States, and Australia, some in Anatolia.

	Imbros and Tenedos
		Imbros (Turkish Gökçeada or Imroz, Greek Imvros) and Tenedos (Turkish Bozcaada; Greek Tenedhos) are two islands in the Aegean Sea which are part of Çanakkale Province in Turkey.
		Imbros was mainly inhabited by Greeks, and called Imvros; Tenedos, which is closer to the Asian mainland, had been divided between the two ethnic groups since the 14th century, and the division had been more or less equal when counts had been taken.
		In classical antiquity, Imbros, like Lemnos, was an Athenian colony, although since the Imbrians appear on the Athenian tribute lists, there may have been a division with the native population.
