KKurdistan is a mountainous area which covers western Iran, eastern Turkey, northern Iraq and some parts of Syria. Kurdish people also reside in Armenia, Georgia, Azarbaijan, and even Khorasan, and Turkmenistan. Kurdistan was settled around 1000 BC by Kurds who are of the Aryan (or Iranian) stock. They have been able to preserve their ancient culture more than other Iranian groups due to the fact that their habitat has been difficult to traverse. The first mention of these people is by the Assyrians.
