Language

I have tried to re-work the spelling and grammar of the piece which I hope is improved. However, though it is good to have an article full of information, it is pretty intensive. More importantly, it is VERY hard to just "dip" into the article, so if someone could attempt to fix this it would be great.--Brigade Piron (talk) 20:58, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Etymology?

I expected some explanation of the name "Bosporan"...is this country named after a person or place? There is nothing in this entry that explains the name of the kingdom. 69.125.134.86 (talk) 14:50, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The "Bosp[h]oran" part refers to the gulf between the Sea of Azov and the Black Sea on the far west of the Crimea where the kingdom was based.--Brigade Piron (talk) 17:44, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Today?

Half of it is recognized bye the world outside Russia as a part of Ukraine and half of it as a part of Russia. Russia claims it all since a few months. Of the issue is uncomfortable the today part should be removed.
