Located between the Aegean Sea and the Sea of Crete and west of the Dodecanese Islands, the CYCLADES (Κυκλάδες in Greek) belong to Greece and was a perfecture (perfectures are now defunct in Greece; there are now peripheral units, which form larger regions). There are around 220 islands in this archipelago. The Cyclades are found southeast of Greece, north of Crete, and west of Turkey. The Cyclades' capital is Ermoúpoli, which has more than 13,000 inhabitants.
