Those are all distinct groups:
Greek Aegean =/= Greek Cretan =/= Greek mainand =/= Greek Cypriot.
Greeks of the Aegean are the most original Greeks in terms of ancestry. They are a bit strange in behaviour for me as a Cretan, I would say they are intermediate in culture between southern mainland and Crete.
The Cypriots are special, I don't know them too much. Back in university , the Cypriots used to stick to their own (other Greek Cypriots), but other than their own group they found it easier to hang out with mainland Greeks rather than Cretans , not sure why. I personally find the Cypriots quite friendly with anyone and more open minded and humble than the average Greek of Greece .Despite these cultural differences, we are one and same nation.
