What has led to conflict between kurds and the governments of Iran Iraq Turkey?

The Kurds want a stake in self-governance or autonomy, but the governments of Turkey, Iraq, and Iran prefer a unitary state. As a result, the two create a vicious cycle of Kurds seeking independence, those movements being violently crushed by the authorities, which inspires more Kurds to seek independence, etc.Specifically in Turkey, the creation of the Turkish State was founded on the conception that all of the Muslim inhabitants of Turkey were ethnic Turks and anyone who asserted otherwise would have their languages, festivals, and identities taken from them. The Kurds were the largest Muslim ethnic minority in Turkey. There were Turkish laws banning education, public communications, and giving children names in the Kurdish language, some of which are still enforced. Rather than giving the Kurds autonomy to self-govern and speak their own languages, the Turks continue to repress Kurdish customs and the Kurdish self-identity. Turkish Kurds have tried to change the laws arrayed against them by electing politicians with a more pro-Kurdish outlook, but many of them have been assassinated by Turks who prefer that the discriminatory laws remain in place. As a result, a number of Kurds have resorted to more violent methods of opposing the Turkish government and seek full-blown independence given the Turkish reticence towards extending proper rights to the Kurds.
