Look at the stamp in the evidence tab. Read what it says on the stamp.
Can you date the stamp?

How can I date it?

"Andrinople" is a hint. That city is not always called that.
Here's the wikipedia page for Edrine, former Andrinople.

What year are we talking about?

Edrine was called Andinople until 1923.
What language is the stamp written, by the way? The text reads "POSTES OTTOMANES".

Tell me how I know the language?

Use google translate and let it detect the language of "POSTES OTTOMANES".
It is French.

What about the language?

The city name in the cancellation mark must be written in the same language: French.
So, you are looking for a city that existed before 1923 and which french name contains "ROUT".

Any hints?

It is a capital of a nearby country.

Tell me the correct city the stam is from

In French: Beyrouth
