Akre in Kurdistan: The CAPITAL OF NOWRUZ in Iraq

[@gofrankurdi]

I’ve been getting in touch with my Kurdish roots, and your channel is the perfect gift 💝 Thank you so much for what you are doing

[@qselector]

Persians ❤Kurds I hope we can get closer to each other as the children of the same parents.

[@dilbermerdin221]

For what? Been killed for decades and denying us and then saying Kurds are worth for nothing and now you Persians want unity with us? How say how! We are not a part of the fake fantasy of anyone we want to be respected as Kurds!

[@ВикторСоколов-л8м]

Thank you. Very interesting. С Новым годом!!!

When Kurdish Medes took down the Assyrian empire in 614bc, they started a new calendar for a new age of freedom for all inhabitants of the region. Kurdish new year is 2722 this year. Happy Newruz to all the nations celebrating 🥳

[@Sanandaj196]

Well said ,👏👏 mousil was ours but Assyrian took over it but them our warriors got back of the assyrians , since that day our calendar 🗓️ started n fire was a symbol of our victory also Symbol of our religion fire n ☀️,, zardashti

Where can someone find this peace of history in writing? I am very interested in kurdish history.

[@kevinyonan2147]

@@comeLord you can't, it's made up history for justification why Kurds are in Northern Iraq. The Mongol wars & wars of Tamerlane annihilated much of the Assyrian population which depopulated most of Northern Iraq. The Ottoman Empire, which had control and authority over substantial populations of Kurdish tribes, settled those tribes along what is now Northern Iraq to bolster their new borders with the Persian Empire after defeating them at Chaldiran.

No one believes these lies except you. Nowruz is a Persian festival. Medes have no connection with Kurds.

[@globalstory2]

Hi Mansoureh, I was in Akre for this years Nowruz celebration. We were there as guests of Aziz Waisi, the commander-in-chief of the Kurdish Zeravani. We loved they beautiful celebration and how friendly everyone was to us. We are creating a documentary where we are highlighting the Kurdish people's commitment to personal and religious freedom. Would it be possible for me to use a few shots from your great story?

Novruz (Newroz) is originally an Iranian tradition. It is highly debatable how and by whom it was adapted in Kurdish culture.

[@pireBabel]

Nowruz is actually NOT Persian new year. If at all, it is the new year of Iranic people. There's a huge difference between Persians and Iranic people. All Persians are Iranic, but not all Iranic people are Persians. Kurds are also an Iranic people.

[@mansoureh]

guess I explained it on the video that more than 300 million people in different countries celebrate Nowruz, and yes it is not only for Persian

[@badinnos]

[@gordyaenbenyamin8445]

@@mansoureh you still had the audacity to call it “Persian new year”. Not everyone and everything is Persian only cuz you Persians have it too.

[@madi4481]

@@gordyaenbenyamin8445 It originated from Persians, and kords have been Iranic people of Persian empire. So cry about history.

[@element4element4]

@@madi4481 Since the Pahlavi era, everything in Iranian history is labeled "persian". Iran is losing its thousands of year long history of diverse cultures and languages.

beau very nice great

[@silencer74]

Glort to iraq

[@wiria2003]

If you do your maths you will know that newroz is actually way older then 2 or 3000 years if it started from the median empire who were kurdish, so that would be around 5000 or 6000 years old before the Persian empire. And sorry to correct you mam but newroz came from the med empire not persian, so you need to learn where it came from and who it started from. Remember the whole persia was under the median empire thats why they also passed on the newroz too apart from alot of other things and to the other countries. So please don't make it sound like its belongs to the Persians. If you research it you will know and hence why the 1st religion came from there also.

[@ibrahimxalil244]

Thank you for the video, but let me correct you on Newroz, it is not a Persian celebration, it is an Iranian celebration since Kurdish people are also an Iranian nation That is why they celebrate it, I don't mean that Iran country nowadays but I mean the land of Iran that nations like Persian, Kurds, Azaris, and Baluches live on.

[@MindSeeker2341]

we arent "iranian" you sheep. even turkmens in iraq celebrate it, are they "iranian" too? lol

Newruz is not a Persian New year but it is Kurdish new year, go back to Shahnameh and learn that Kurdish people was the first nation who celebrated Newruz as a sign of victory up on their enemies, then there were no Persian and neither Iran

[@angel33333333]

I don't remember reading that in the shahnameh can you tell where

No, it is the new year of all the Iranic world.

[@javadnazari8428]

It is written in the Shahnameh that Iranians celebrate Nowruz when Jamshid came to power. Also, the Shahnameh is a Persian book and Persian speakers can read this book. You probably haven't read the Shahnameh and just learned something wrong on Instagram. There is no mention of the Kurdish people in the Shahnameh. Rather, Kurdish in Persian, especially Persian classical poems such as Shahnameh or Masnavi and Manavi, Diwan Hafez, etc., has meant a shepherd. Nowruz is celebrated by 300 million people in the world, but this is a Persian festival.
