Governments in the region, particularly Turkey, Syria, and Iraq, have displaced the Kurds through discriminatory policies, forced assimilation efforts, and military operations.

population wise, Kurds still mostly reside in Kurdistan, a region (not a separate country, which is what they do want) that comprises areas along the borders of mostly nothern Iraq and other countries. They have a good reason to want their own country, as Sadaam Hussein massacred a large number of them during his reign. They desire a sovereign country to call their own, though they lack the support of an organization like the Zionist movement that allowed Israel to gain support for its independence in 1948.

Well, to begin the Kurds are really brave and the are the the largest ethnic group without a country. They fought so many times for their autonomy but they failed and now they are over 25 million people the 4 million of them are in north of Iraq and by their braveness and so many effort they established a Kurdistan Federal region and its lead by Mr. Masud Al-Barzani. The other Kurds are in Turkey, Iran, and Syria and they don't have autonomy yet.

They do not have a state because their lands have been stolen by greedy Arabs, Turks and Persians. These countries have little interest in the realization of a Kurdish Dream and no Western Country has openly backed a Kurdish Resistance to the point of success.

Though in Iraq, the northern part has autonomy, the area in between the rest of Iraq and north Iraq, despite having a Kurdish majority after a failed Arabization campaign, is not part of autonomy.

Kurds and Persians are ethnically and linguistically related, in Turkey, the 10-30 million Kurds there are yet to be liberated from oppressive Turkish rule.
