00:00Why is Kurdistan a country without state?
00:02With about 40 millions of people,
00:05Kurdistan is the largest ethnic group without country.
00:08It's on the territory of four different countries.
00:11Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran.
00:14If only one of these four countries allowed a Kurdistan independent,
00:18it could cause movements of independence in the three others.
00:21Thus, all these countries are aligned to not allow Kurdistan to become independent.
00:26This situation finds its origin at the beginning of the 20th century,
00:30after the fall of the Ottoman Empire.
00:32There was a plan for a Kurdistan,
00:34but Turkey was completely opposed
00:35and promised to make a war against him if there was one day.
00:39At the time, everyone hoped peace in the region,
00:42and all the great powers were placed on the side of Turkey.
00:46Despite the lack of a Kurdistan independent,
00:48some Kurdistan, most Kurdistan,
00:51have acquired a certain political autonomy,
00:52especially in the north of Iraq,
00:55where the autonomous region of Kurdistan was established
00:58after the Gulf War in 1991.
