As Iraqi Kurdistan is the only one with an official government, I assume you are talking about that one. Iraqi Kurdistan is a parliamentary democracy with a regional assembly that consists of 111 seats and is consists of four provinces. There is an elected president, who is currently Masoud Barzani.
Kurdistan Regional Government was created in 2005.
Erbil /Hawler/ is the largest city in kurdistan of Iraq
The UK government did not actively destroy Kurdistan, but passively destroyed it. According to the Treaty of Sevres, there was supposed to be an independent Kurdistan, but when the new Turkish government refused to abide by that treaty, the British and French were too worn out from World War I to force Turkey to adhere to the terms. So, they accepted the new Treaty of Lausanne which prevented the creation of an independent Kurdistan.
Erbil, which the Kurds called Hewlêr, (like howl-er), is the headquarters of the Iraqi Kurdistani government. The Iraqi Kurdistani Parliament meets there.
Kurdistan is a roughly defined region in the Middle East that spans across parts of Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and Syria. It is home to the Kurdish people who have their own distinct language and culture. The boundaries of Kurdistan are not officially recognized by any government.
The political structure of Kurdistan, particularly in the autonomous Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI), is characterized by a parliamentary system. The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) operates with a President, currently Nechirvan Barzani, and a Parliament that is elected by the people. The KRG manages its own affairs, including education, health, and security, while still being subject to the Iraqi federal government. Additionally, the region is home to multiple political parties, with the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) being the most prominent.
In 1923, Kurdistan was divided between the two countries that are Iraq and Turkey today.
The first major division of the region of Kurdistan occurred in the early 1500s when the Safavids of Iran and Ottomans of Turkey created a border that separated Iranian Kurdistan permanently from Turkish/Iraqi/Syrian Kurdistan. With the Fall of the Ottoman Empire, the Ottoman government capitulated to Allies at the end of World War I and signed the Treaty of Sèvres in 1919, which, among other things, granted the right for an independent Kurdistan. However, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk overthrew the Ottoman government and established the modern Republic of Turkey. He successfully opposed the Greek forces on the Anatolian mainland and prevented the realization of a new Kurdish state in the east. Thus in 1923, the Treaty of Sèvres was abrogated by the Treaty of Lausanne and Kurdistan was further divided by the creation of the French Mandate of Syria and the British Mandate of Iraq. This is how Kurdistan as a region was divided.
Kurdistan isn't a country. If you might have read and/or heard it; it is an ideal one that Kurds dream about. The Great Kurdistan is divided into four parts as follows: One part is in Iraq the north, the other is in Iran the west, another is in Turkey the south and the last is in Syria the east. Of those four parts, only one is a federal region within the country:Iraq, and it has a regional government, Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG).
