There is, in fact, a very distinct dividing line between the Arabic and the Turkish-speakin- g portions of the former Ottoman empire.

The Rtralts are entered from the Tyrrhenian sea, on the north, at the narrowest point, the distance betweert Punta del Faro on the Sicilian shore and the mainland lighthouse on Punta Pezzo being not more than two miles.
