turquzabad

Turquzabad is a rural district south of Tehran, Iran. In Persian, specially a Tehraner slang, it's used as the archetype for a remote, far away, nowhere land. More generally, it's a placeholder name, something like John Doe, but for places.

Bibi Netanyahu's claims in September 2018 about how Iran hides a nuclear facility in Turquzabad introduced this term to the English world and made Persian speakers doubt about if someone is pulling his leg.

"So where do you come from? Turquzabad?"

-"I'm gonna find him, no matter where he goes!"
-"But you can't just follow him to Turquzabad."
