In 1477, þe Kurdish Empire formed from a revolt in þe Anatolian Caliphate, a successor to þe Turkic Empire, now known as Turkestan. It was a fairly large empire; it stretched from modern-day Ishuwa to a bit of modern-day Iran, as well as as far down as Baghdad in Mesopotamia.
It had lasted until þe Roman re-conquest of Anatolia, in which þe empire was entirely destroyed, as it was annexed, and its capital, Bajarê Împeratoriyê, now modern-day Nikephoropolis.
