[quote:Anonymous Coward 78039850:MV80MTU5NDQ1Xzc1NTczNTQ0XzRDM0Q0QkNB] [b]Who are the Kurds?[/b] Between 25 and 35 million Kurds inhabit a mountainous region straddling the borders of Turkey, Iraq, Syria, Iran and Armenia. They make up the fourth-largest ethnic group in the Middle East, but they have never obtained a permanent nation state. Where do they come from? The Kurds are one of the indigenous peoples of the Mesopotamian plains and the highlands in what are now south-eastern Turkey, north-eastern Syria, northern Iraq, north-western Iran and south-western Armenia. Today, they form a distinctive community, united through race, culture and language, even though they have no standard dialect. They also adhere to a number of different religions and creeds, although the majority are Sunni Muslims. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-29702440 [/quote]
