Assyrians, Kurds and Arabs in Iraq
Today I had a chance of doing little bit of research on Assyrians and history of Iraq
It seems since the defeat of Persian Empire, Arabs used to migrate to "Eraak" meaning lower Iran in Persian, "Eragh" as Arabs call it which was actually the home country of Christian Assyrians? and throughout the history it became as an Arab state after Britons divided the lands after WW1 which back then Iraq was under ruling of Turkish Ottoman Empire Now after so many years U.S. is planning to give a land to Kurds and Arabs leaving out Assyrians, which I think is another mistake By the way I don't know much about Kurds even though I had a lot of Kurd friends I never had a chance to have a serious discussion expect them suggesting they have invented almost anything we know are Persian Invention such as Backgammon, which we used to play a lot lol So if you are interested in history and in this topic or would like to share your knowledge or your point of view then you are most welcomed
