Byłych kolonii brytyjskich, Cypr uzyskał niepodległość w 1960 roku po latach odporność na brytyjskiego panowania. Napięcia między grecką większość cypryjskich i Turków cypryjskich mniejszości przyszło do głowy w grudniu 1963 roku, kiedy wybuchła przemoc w stolicy Nikozji. Pomimo rozmieszczenia sił pokojowych ONZ w 1964 r., sporadyczne akty przemocy międzywspólnotowego nadal zmusza większość Turków cypryjskich w enklawach na całej wyspie. W 1974 r. rząd grecki sponsorowane próbę przejęcia kontroli nad Cypr został spełniony przez interwencję militarną z Turcji, który wkrótce kontrolowali ponad jedną trzecią wyspy. W 1983 roku, Turków cypryjskich zajmowanych powierzchni oświadczył, że "Turecka Republika Cypru Północnego" ( "północny"), ale jest uznawane tylko przez Turcję. Wybory nowego prezydenta Cypru w 2008 r. służył jako impuls do ONZ, aby zachęcały zarówno turecką i cypryjską rządy do ponownego otwarcia negocjacji w sprawie zjednoczenia. We wrześniu 2008 roku, przywódcy Greków cypryjskich i Turków Cyprio
t communities started negotiations under UN auspices aimed at reuniting the divided island. The entire island entered the EU on 1 May 2004, although the EU acquis - the body of common rights and obligations - applies only to the areas under the internationally recognized Greek Cypriot Government, and is suspended in the areas administered by Turkish Cypriots. However, individual Turkish Cypriots able to document their eligibility for Republic of Cyprus citizenship legally enjoy the same rights accorded to other citizens of European Union states.

Terytorium Republiki Cypru pod kontrolę rządu ma gospodarki rynkowej zdominowanej przez sektor usług, który stanowi prawie cztery piąte PKB. Turystyki, usług finansowych i nieruchomości są najważniejszymi sektorami. Głaz narzutowy tempa wzrostu w ostatnim dziesięcioleciu odzwierciedlają gospodarki uzależnienie od turystyki, który często zmienia się destabilizacji politycznej w regionie i warunki gospodarcze w Europie Zachodniej. Niemniej jednak, w dziedzinie gospodarki pod kontrolą rządu wzrosła w tempie znacznie powyżej średniej UE w roku 2000. Cypr przystąpiły do Europejskiego Mechanizmu Kursowego (ERM2) w maju 2005 r. przyjęły euro jako swoją walutę narodową na 1 stycznia 2008. Agresywny program oszczędnościowy w poprzednim roku, w celu torując drogę do euro przyczyniły się z kolei gwałtowny wzrost deficytu budżetowego (6,3% w 2003 r.) do nadwyżki w wysokości 1,2% w 2008 r., oraz spadek inflacji do 4,7%. Ten dobrobyt przyszedł pod ciśnieniem w 2009 r., jak budownictwo i turystyka zmniejszyło się w twarz
of reduced foreign demand triggered by the ongoing global financial crisis. Although Cyprus lagged its EU peers in showing signs of stress from the global crisis, the economy tipped into recession in mid 2009 and GDP contracted by 0.8% in 2009. In addition, the budget deficit is on the rise and reached 3.5% of GDP, a violation of the EU's budget deficit criteria of no more than 3% of GDP. In response to the country's deteriorating finances, Nicosia is promising to implement measures to cut the cost of the state payroll, curb tax evasion, and revamp social benefits. As in the area administered by Turkish Cypriots, water shortages are a perennial problem; a few desalination plants have been added to existing plants over the last year and are now on line. After 10 years of drought, the country received substantial rainfall from 2001-04. Since then, rainfall has been well below average, making water rationing a necessity.

Economy - overview: The Turkish Cypriot economy has roughly half the per capita GDP of the south, and economic growth tends to be volatile, given the north's relative isolation, bloated public sector, reliance on the Turkish lira, and small market size. Agriculture and services, together, employ more than half of the work force. The Turkish Cypriot economy grew around 10.6% in 2006, fueled by growth in the construction and education sectors, as well as increased employment of Turkish Cypriots in the area under government control. GDP declined about 2.0% in 2007. The Turkish Cypriots are heavily dependent on transfers from the Turkish Government. Ankara directly finances about one-third of the "TRNC's" budget. Aid from Turkey has exceeded $400 million annually in recent years. The Turkish Cypriot economy experienced a sharp slowdown in 2008-09 due to the global financial crisis and, because of i
ts reliance on British and Turkish tourism, which has declined due to the recession. Turkish Cypriot finances also deteriorated in 2009 as decreased state revenues and increased government expenditures on public sector salaries and social services led to a large budget deficit.

current situation: Cyprus is primarily a destination country for a large number of women trafficked from Eastern and Central Europe, the Philippines, and the Dominican Republic for the purpose of sexual exploitation; traffickers continued to fraudulently recruit victims for work as dancers in cabarets and nightclubs on short-term "artiste" visas, for work in pubs and bars on employment visas, or for illegal work on tourist or student visas
tier rating:
Tier 2 Watch List - Cyprus is on the Tier 2 Watch List for a third consecutive year for failure to show evidence of increasing efforts to combat human trafficking during 2007; although Cyprus passed a new trafficking law and opened a government trafficking shelter, these efforts are outweighed by its failure to show tangible and critically needed progress in the areas of law enforcement, victim protection, and the prevention of trafficking (2008)
