I meet the youth of Kurdistan in Duhok | mE 46

I ride from Zakho to Duhok. On the way, I find some burned cars that might be remains of the war against ISIS. Then, in Duhok, I meet some high school students, and we go together through the fascinating bazaar of Duhok.

There are a lot of Assyrians in Duhok. The Assyrian name for Duhok is Nuhadra. The Assyrians are the oldest nation on this planet. They will reach 7,000 years in not so long. Glad you mentioned them. The Ezidis also date their calendar back almost 7,000 years. We the Kurds date our calendar to some 2,700 years back. So they are both really old each in their own way. Most inventions of modern humans came from Mesopotamia. Before Egyptian pharaos used to pay tribute to Mesopotamian kings, in particular Assyrian kings. Thanks for visiting my hometown. Always welcome back. Slav.

[@kurdekibedin1347]

1. So-called Assyrians were named to assyrians by Europeans in the 19th century 2. Most of them are refugees in Başûr (iraqi Kurdistan) 3. Most of the Christians in Iraq don't consider themselves "assyrian", they are chaldeans 4. Yezidis are Kurds and Yezidism was created in the 12th century. They were mentioned as kurds 800 years ago by the ancestors of today's so-called Assyrians. Yezidis are Kurds and there was never a Yezidi ethnicity

[@element4element4]

@@kurdekibedin1347 Let Assyrians identify as they wish, there is no reason to interfere with that. And how Assyrians and Chaldeans identify internally is up to them and their problem. I am getting tired of Assyrians trying to attack yezidies identifying as kurds, and kurds attacking assyrians for their identity. Ignore the idiots that create these issues, don't get triggered to also behave like that.

[@redurmaye2502]

Your videos are beautiful! Thank you for also having travelled through Kurdistan ☀️ About Kurds and Persians having been one people, the boy was entirely wrong. Kurds and Persians are related in the way that Scandinavian people and the Germanic people are. The boy talked about the time where the Kurdish Median empire included also Persians, and then was taken over by the latter one. The main ancestors of the Kurds were looong before the Median empire known as Khurri/Hurrians. In that time the ancestors of the Persian people had connections with the Tadjik who are known today as the "true Persian speakers". However directly related to the Kurds are the Balochi in the east of Iran through ancient migration

"Unusual country" = developing country or LDC (Least Developed Country)?

[@KinoYves]

For me it means a country where few tourists go. You have many underdeveloped countries where tons of tourists go, while places like Luxembourg or Azerbaijan see fewer tourists while they are very developed.

[@MadKingOfMadaya]

*_At the end you give a bit of history and I would like to complete your explanation. You are referring to the Ancient Medes, the ancestors of Kurds. The Medes fought against the Assyrian Empire due to mutlitple raids and attacks by Assyria on ancient Kurdish lands and then eventually a man named Diako (Deioces in greek) would unite all of the kurdish clans and he would found the Median Empire. Diako gets a son named Phraortes who solidifies the Median empire and Phraortes son Kaykhosraw (Cyaxares) would conquer the Assyrian empire and divide it between his kingdom and the Babylonians who were completely subjugated by the Assyrians. Cyaxares son, Azhuduhak (Astyages), would have a dream that his grandson by his daughter Mandane would usurp him, one thing leads to another and the dream comes to fruition despite the efforts of Astyages, that grandson is Cyrus the Great who would be the founder of the Achaemenid Empire. This shows that the Achaemenids are as much Kurdish as they are iranian. In fact my theory is that even the Achaemenids were themselves not natives of Persia but a median family who would rule the region of southern iran and Anshan in the stead of the Median Emperor. In the old testament the Achaemenid Empire is not known solely as the Persian Empire (as it is known in greek and western sources) but as the Medo-Persian Empire, because the Jews know who is working behind the curtains. Now I have read this history extensively and I implore anyone reading this comment to do the same. Perhaps you will come to realize why the world looks the way it does today_* 😎

The reason you see a larger arab population in larger cities of Iraqi Kurdistan is mainly due to refugees from Syrian civil war and from elsewhere in Iraq due to ISIS. Although a big part of the Iraqi arab refugees have returned after the defeat of ISIS, many are still in Kurdistan and the Syrian refugees are also still there as the situation has not really been resolved.
