The area of Iraqi Kurdistan is 40,643 square kilometers.
It is neither.Kurdistan is a term applied to regions of southeast Turkey, northeast Syria, northern Iraq, and northwest Iran in reference to the Kurdish ethnic majority who live on that land. The Kurds, by and large, want independence from their host nations and to create an independent republic on these majority Kurdish lands. The closest to this are the Iraqi and Syrian Kurdistans which have become de facto independent as a result of the Iraqi Civil War (between the government and ISIL) and the Syrian Civil War.
It depends on the specificity of your map, but it is likely the city of Basra.
Kirkuk is located in Asia, specifically in the country of Iraq. It is situated in the northern part of the country, near the border with Kurdistan.
The physical features of Iraq are diverse and fall into four main regions: the desert (west of the Euphrates), Upper Mesopotamia (between the upper Tigris and Euphrates rivers), the northern highlands of Iraqi Kurdistan and Lower Mesopotamia. The alluvial plain extending from around Tikrit to the Persian Gulf. Syrian Desert (260,000km2), mostly broad plains, reedy marshes along the Iranian border to the south with large flooded areas, mountains along borders with Iran and Turkey, river plains, alluvial plains of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers
Since the territory is mountainous, it makes long distance transportation and unity difficult.
Yes. People have manners in Iraqi Kurdistan.
Iraqi Kurdistan was created on 1970-03-11.
Iraqi Kurdistan constitutional referendum happened in 2009.
In the case of Turkish and Iranian Kurdistan, you get VISAS to those nations and then proceed to go to the Kurdish-majority regions. In the case of Iraqi Kurdistan, you get a special VISA to visit Iraqi Kurdistan from the Iraqi Embassy or upon arrival in Iraqi Kurdistan (if you are a national from certain countries and are arriving in Iraqi Kurdistan from somewhere other than Iraq). In the case of Syrian Kurdistan, it is currently STRONGLY discouraged to go to Syrian Kurdistan. Although it is among the safest areas in Syria, that is not saying much.
Erbil, which the Kurds called Hewlêr, (like howl-er), is the headquarters of the Iraqi Kurdistani government. The Iraqi Kurdistani Parliament meets there.
The largest cities in Iraqi Kurdistan are Erbil, Slemani, and Duhok. Erbil is the capital and largest city in the region. Sulaymaniyah (Slemani) and Duhok are also major cities in Iraqi Kurdistan.
The population of Iraqi Kurdistan is estimated to be around 6-8 million people. Keep in mind that population figures can vary depending on the source and the specific region within Iraqi Kurdistan.
Erbil /Hawler/ is the largest city in kurdistan of Iraq
Kurdistan is not an independent country and therefore does not maintain embassies. Additionally, the Indian embassy to Kurdistan would (in theory) be in Kurdistan, not in India. The Iraqi embassy to India (which represents Iraqi Kurdistan) is in New Delhi with the following address: L-1/2, Hauz Khas New Delhi - 110016 India
Depends on what country you are visiting, it might be Turkish Lira, Iranian Rial, Iraqi Dinar, or Syrian Pounds. The autonomous state within Iraq which the term Kurdistan nowadays mostly refers to uses the Iraqi Dinar.
The wars going on Kurdistan are more connected to those going on in their host countries. For example, the problems in Iraqi Kurdistan are traceable to the Iraqi Insurgency in the wake of the Iraq War of 2003-2011. The problems in Syrian Kurdistan are traceable to the Syrian Civil War, which started in 2011 and is only escalating.
Kurdistan is not an independent nation, it is rather a name used to classify an area which is mainly inhabited by Kurds. Since it is not a country or nation there is no requirement for a visa to visit that area. Apply for a visa of the nation(s) that you are visiting. The one exception to the above is for Iraqi Kurdistan, which, because of its relative autonomy, has a VISA system that is distinct from the Iraqi VISA system. Depending on your nation of origin, you may be able to get a VISA-on-arrival or you may need to apply for an Iraqi Kurdistan VISA from your local Iraqi Embassy.
