Lykia

The question reasonably raised lately, Why would Epsilon be based in, and operate out of, Turkey of all elsewise choice?
The answer though not one-faceted, is plain enough and simple.
First off, even if the spiritual connection be ignored (wherefore Rumi {Jelaleddin}—the poet of Epsilon, so lived and died here); and take the matter strictly on a flesh-and-bone level, this is the state-symbol where, at this TimeSpace universally most critical, the ongoing battle between the Jaa and Epsilon has reached its most decisive point.
For this is a symbol-state—here on Earth’s crust the one SuperSpot unique, its people being HereNow called upon to take a stand and make The Final Choice: of either relapsing into the Moslem State of not that long–just three quarters of a century–ago that it was; or honor the legacy of the (Maverick) Paradigm that, single-handedly, an Epsilon leader later nicknamed Ataturk (Father of Turks), against all odds created.
And second off, our MediTerra (MiddleEarth) has played CenterBase for Epsilon since the first landed settlement on this here planet’s surface; Lykia in South Turkey being the only site on Earth retaining the epithet that signified our origin.
For Lykia means WolfLand (with even the most accepted interpretation of Lyk that wants it to mean Light, deriving actually from references to the Light of Sirius, aka the Wolf/DogStar our Metropolis, where stands our ancient home).
Lyk is the root for Wolf (Lykophos or WolfLight being the Ellenic word for Twilight for example); Lykos denoting the male animal, and Lykaina—more to the point: the Great SheWolf, the Totem of our Tribe.
