   After the period of the Hatay State it joined Turkey under the agreement of 23 June 1939.

How the total is counted: years of actual Ottoman rule are added up. Temporary occupations shorter than a year (that were reversed) are not subtracted; they appear as notes in the chronology.

In the atlas

On the atlas map the city lies in the region “Hatay (Sanjak of Alexandretta)”. Map colours work at region level, so the city's own dates may differ from the region's by a few years.
