Kurdish people (A Nuclear-Flu Doomsday)

The Kurds (Kurdish: Kurd‎, کورد) also the Kurdish people (Kurdish: Gelê Kurd‎, گەلی کورد‎) are an ethnic group in the Middle East, mostly inhabiting a contiguous area spanning adjacent parts of eastern and southeastern Turkey (Northern Kurdistan), western Iran (Eastern or Iranian Kurdistan), northern Iraq (Southern or Iraqi Kurdistan), and northern Syria (Western Kurdistan or Rojava). The Kurds are culturally and linguistically closely related to the Iranian peoples and, as a result, are often themselves classified as an Iranian people.
