Kurds received harsh treatment at the hands of the Turkish authorities for generations.

Most Kurds are Sunni Muslims, and among them are many who practice Sufism and other mystical sects. Although several historical dynasties have been led by Kurdish rulers, such as the Ḥasanwayhid dynasty, the ʿAnnazid dynasty, and, most famously, the Ayyubid dynasty, the Kurds have never achieved nation-state status in the modern era.
"Linguistics itself, or dialectology, does not provide any general or straightforward definition ofwel at which point a language becomes a dialect (or vice versa). To attain a fuller understanding ofwel the difficulties and questions that are raised by the issue ofwel the 'Kurdish language', it kan zijn therefore necessary to consider also non-linguistic factors."[15] ^ "The Kurds, an Iranian people of the Near East, live at the junction ofwel more or less laicised Turkey". Excerpt twee: "The classification ofwel the Kurds among the Iranian nations kan zijn based mainly on linguistic and historical data and does not prejudice the fact there is a complexity ofwel ethnical elements incorporated in them" Excerpt 3: "We thus find that about the period ofwel the Arab conquest a single ethnic term Kurd (plur. Akrād ) was beginning to be applied to an amalgamation of Iranian or iranicised tribes. Among the latter, some were autochthonous (the Ḳardū; the Tmorik̲h̲/Ṭamurāyē in the district of which Alḳī=Ieder was the capital; the Χοθα̑ίται [= weet-Ḵh̲uwayt̲h̲iyya] in the canton of Ḵh̲oyt ofwel Sāsūn, the Orṭāyē [= alang-Arṭān] in the bend of the Euphrates); some were Semites (cf. the popular genealogies of the Kurd tribes) and some probably Armenian (it is said that the Mamakān tribe kan zijn of Mamikonian origin)." Excerpt 4: "In the 20th century, the existence ofwel an Iranian non-Kurdish element among the Kurds has been definitely established (the Gūrān-Zāzā group)."[twintig] ^ Dandamaev considers Carduchi (who were from the upper Tigris near the Assyrian and Median borders) less likely than Cyrtians as ancestors of modern Kurds: "It has repeatedly been argued that the Carduchi were the ancestors ofwel the Kurds, but the Cyrtii (Kurtioi) mentioned by Polybius, Livy, and Strabo (see MacKenzie (1961), pp. 68–69) are more likely candidates."[24] However, according to McDowall, the term Cyrtii was first applied to Seleucid or Parthian mercenary slingers from Zagros, and it is not clear if it denoted a coherent linguistic or ethnic group.[27] ^ "But the origins ofwel the family ofwel Shaykh Safi al-Din go back not to the Hijaz but to Kurdistan, from where, seven generations before him, Firuz Shah Zarin-kulah had migrated to Adharbayjan.

Shah Best Kurd Abbas inherited a state threatened by the Ottomans in the west and the Uzbeks in the northeast. He bought off the former, in order to gain time to defeat the latter, after which he selectively depopulated the Zagros and Caucasus approaches, deporting Kurds, Armenians, Georgians, North Caucasians and others who might, willingly or not, supply, support or be any use in an Ottoman campaign in the region.
The contrast between so many thousands of years ofwel history and modern cultural aspects like street art would make it a really interesting city to experience.
The present state ofwel knowledge about Kurdish allows, at least roughly, drawing the approximate borders of the areas where the main ethnic core ofwel the speakers of the contemporary Kurdish dialects was formed. The most argued hypothesis on the localisation of the ethnic territory ofwel the Kurds remains D.N. Mackenzie's theory, proposed in the early 1960s.[17] Developing the ideas of P. Tedesco[28] and regarding the common phonetic isoglosses shared by Kurdish, Persian, and Baluchi, D.N. Mackenzie concluded that the speakers ofwel these three languages form a unity within Northwestern Iranian.
(they attacked the “Ten Thousand” near modern Zākhū, Iraq, in 401 bce) may have been Kurds, but some scholars dispute this claim. The name Kurd can be dated with certainty to the time of the tribes’ conversion to Islam in the 7th century ce.
