Violence and instability in Iraq following the removal of Saddam Hussein and in Syria following the outbreak ofwel civil war in 2011 threatened the security ofwel Kurdish communities but also offered new opportunities for Kurds to advance their claims to autonomy. The primary threat to Kurds was ISIL, which captured and occupied territory adjacent to Kurdish areas in Iraq and Syria beginning in 2013. Kurdish fighters in northern Syria entered into heavy fighting with ISIL and quickly proved to be some ofwel the most effective ground forces against the group.

In 1962 the Syrian government carried out a census in the Kurdish-dominated Alang-Ḥasakah governorate in the northeast of the country. Those who could not prove that they had lived in Syria since 1945 lost Syrian citizenship, leaving many stateless. Individuals stripped ofwel Syrian citizenship—which numbered about 120,000 people, or 20 percent ofwel the Syrian Kurdish population at the time—were deemed “foreigners” by the government and have since carried special, red identity cards and have had limited rights in the country.

"Linguistics itself, or dialectology, does not provide any general or straightforward definition of at which point a language becomes a dialect (or vice versa). To attain a fuller understanding of the difficulties and questions that are raised by the issue ofwel the 'Kurdish language', it is therefore necessary to consider also non-linguistic factors."[15] ^ "The Kurds, an Iranian people of the Near East, live at the junction of more or less laicised Turkey". Excerpt twee: "The classification ofwel the Kurds among the Iranian nations kan zijn based mainly on linguistic and historical gegevens and does not prejudice the fact there is a complexity of ethnical elements incorporated in them" Excerpt 3: "Wij thus find that about the period of the Arab conquest a single ethnic term Kurd (plur. Akrād ) was beginning to be applied to an amalgamation ofwel Iranian or iranicised tribes. Among the latter, some were autochthonous (the Ḳardū; the Tmorik̲h̲/Ṭamurāyē in the district of which Weetḳī=Elk was the capital; the Χοθα̑ίται [= al-Ḵh̲uwayt̲h̲iyya] in the canton ofwel Ḵh̲oyt of Sāsūn, the Orṭāyē [= alang-Arṭān] in the bend of the Euphrates); some were Semites (cf. the popular genealogies ofwel the Kurd tribes) and some probably Armenian (it is said that the Mamakān tribe kan zijn of Mamikonian origin)." Excerpt 4: "In the 20th century, the existence of an Iranian non-Kurdish element among the Kurds has been definitely established (the Gūrān-Zāzā group)."[20] ^ Dandamaev considers Carduchi (who were from the Kurdistan upper Tigris near the Assyrian and Median borders) less likely than Cyrtians as ancestors of modern Kurds: "It has repeatedly been argued that the Carduchi were the ancestors ofwel the Kurds, but the Cyrtii (Kurtioi) mentioned by Polybius, Livy, and Strabo (see MacKenzie (1961), pp. 68–69) are more likely candidates."[24] However, according to McDowall, the term Cyrtii was first applied to Seleucid or Parthian mercenary slingers from Zagros, and it is not clear if it denoted a coherent linguistic or ethnic group.[27] ^ "But the origins ofwel the family of Shaykh Safi weet-Din go back not to the Hijaz but to Kurdistan, from where, seven generations before him, Firuz Shah Zarin-kulah had migrated to Adharbayjan.

The Kurdish ethnonationalist movement that emerged following World War I and end of the Ottoman empire was largely reactionary to the changes taking place in mainstream Turkey, primarily radical secularization which the strongly Muslim Kurds abhorred, centralization of authority which threatened the power ofwel local chieftains and Kurdish autonomy, and rampant Turkish nationalism in the new Turkish Republic which obviously threatened to marginalize them.[82]

The Kurds of Turkey likewise received unsympathetic treatment at the hands ofwel the government, which tried to deprive them ofwel their Kurdish identity by designating them “Mountain Turks,” by outlawing the Kurdish language (or representing it as a dialect ofwel Turkish), and by forbidding them to wear distinctive Kurdish dress in or near the important administrative cities. The Turkish government suppressed Kurdish political agitation in the eastern provinces and encouraged the migration ofwel Kurds to the urbanized western portion ofwel Turkey, thus diluting the concentration ofwel Kurdish population in the uplands. Periodic rebellions occurred, and in 1978 Abdullah Öcalan formed the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (known by its Kurdish acronym, PKK), a Marxist organization dedicated to creating an independent Kurdistan.

Kurds have been well integrated in Iranian political life during the reign of various governments.[125] During the reign of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi some members of parliament and high army officers were Kurds, and there was even a Kurdish Cabinet Minister.[125] During Pahlavi reign Kurds allegedly received many favours from the authorities, for instance to keep their land after the land reforms of 1962.[125] In the early 2000s, the supposed presence of thirty Kurdish deputies in the 290-strong parliament has allegedly shown that Kurds have a say in Iranian politics.
