	Cyprus History: Lusignan Period - Cyprus and Genoa: Origins of the War of 1373-1374
		Edbury describes that Cyprus continually leaned toward the Venetians versus Genoa, and he provides ample evidence of this in that the Genoese and the Venetians were involved in two other conflicts: the War of Curzola 1294-1299 and the Straights War 1350-1355.
		This prosperity was due to in part that Cyprus lay in the path of the trade routes of the period and that with the loss of the Crusader States Cyprus increasingly became an important link in the trade with the Levant.
		Cyprus also used its navy to police the seas in conjunction with a papal ban that prevented Christian trade with Muslims, they hoped to prevent trade with Syria thereby forcing people to trade with them.

		Cyprus became divided politically when the United Kingdom gave up its sovereignty over the island and the Greek and Turkish Cypriots could not truly agree on the formation of a new state of Cyprus in 1960.
		This would solve all legal problems around the island: The territory of North Cyprus would not be a territory of the EU, and the EU would not have to worry about a territory belonging to it that is not controlled by one of its members.
		Even if the Turkish Republic of North Cyprus was not officially recognized, the application of principles like that of prohibition of force against its territory and of economic and communicative equality with, say, members of the EU, would force the Greek side to renounce its claim for dominating Cyprus.
