      Dear Sir/Madam,

      I have noticed that on Windy.com’s map, the city of İzmit in Turkey is
      labeled with its ancient Roman-era name, "Nicomedia," instead of its
      official and modern name. This is a serious geographical and
      historical mistake, and it is completely unacceptable.

      İzmit is an officially recognized city within the Republic of Turkey,
      and its correct name is universally acknowledged as "İzmit" on all
      international maps. The incorrect labeling on your platform misleads
      users and distorts historical facts. As a provider of weather and
      mapping services, Windy.com is expected to present accurate and
      up-to-date information.

      I urge you to correct this mistake immediately. Please find attached a
      screenshot highlighting the incorrect name. I expect you to take
      prompt action on this matter.
