The political union or unification of two territories or nations, particularly referring to the union of Cyprus with Greece in the 20th-century political movement.
From Greek 'en' (in, together) and 'osis' (condition of being), literally meaning 'becoming united' or 'union.' Used especially in Cypriot-Greek political discourse.
Enosis was an extremely significant political goal in Cyprus—Greek Cypriots wanted union with Greece, but it was opposed by Turkish Cypriots and others, leading to serious conflict that shaped the island's modern history.
