Good question, from now on I will write it as Turkiye and not Turkey, when appropriate offcourse. As far as the world changing it to Turkiye, well that probably won't ever happen.

It's sort of debatable... it's like asking if Egypt is part of Africa or part of the Middle East. The answer, truthfully, would be "both."\n\nHowever, I would say that Turkey is more a part of Europe than it is part of the Middle East. Their customs, ambitions, and laws have always resembled Europe more (especially in the regions east and north of Ankara).

Turkey\n\nTo see Cappadocia is to feel you are in a dream world. Mere words are useless in describing the charm and the beauty of this region. You must experience this for yourself! \n\n  \nCappadocia is located in Turkey's NEVSEHIR province, which is almost in the middle of the Anatolia (Anadolu) and 220 miles(~350km) southeast of Ankara, Turkey's capital. \n\nhttp://www.helloturkey.net/cappadocia.html

Istanbul. It depends on what you consider to be sea as there is no city literally split in half by deep ocean. If you consider any navigable saltwater strait that connects two sea sized bodies as "divided by sea" then Istanbul is divided by sea. The Black and Mediterranean Seas are connected by the Bosphorus, a strait around 1 mile wide.\nI really can't think of any others at the moment.\nCopenhagen is on a strait, maybe if Malmo,Sweden is considered a suburb then that too.
