Get the Kurd'ish mug.A historic Indo-European people numbering 30-40 million inhabiting a region known as Kurdistan since approximately 3000 B.C.
First written record of the Kurds was by Xenophon, a general under Alexander the Great, who noted the troubles the Greek army had when crossing the 'Land of Karda' and being confronted by fierce indigenous warriors.
Kurdistan was partitioned and annexed into Iran, Iraq, Turkey and Syria by British colonialist in 1921, after the breakup of the Ottoman empire.
This tactical decision was taken in order to allow future manipulation of the Kurdish populations with the aim of destabilise the respective countries.
Having been subjected to various attempts of assimilation and genocidal campaigns, most notably by successive Turkish and Iraqi governments, the Kurds have largely persevered; still retaining the burning passion of self-determination they had when first subjected to Islamic colonialism centuries ago.
The status quo of the Kurdish region is and has always been directly consequential to stability in the Middle East. Six successive Iraqi regimes were deposed due to Kurdish uprisings.
Presently, the capture of a popular Kurdish leader and ostensible reforms in Turkey have largely kept Northern Kurdistan quiet.
Southern Kurdistan (Iraq) has had self-determination and de-facto autonomy for the last 13 years, and looks set to because fully autonomous of the makeshift Iraq government taking power in 2005, provided Islamic fundamentalists do not get their way.
Repressive measures in Easter (Syria) and western (Iran) Kurdistan have been adopted to keep Kurdish independence from happening, however these have been met by civil unrest and an escalation in riots as seen in Quashmili

Get the Kurd mug.Eastern Iran, Northern Iraq, Western Syria, Southern Turkey and parts of Armenia. Was intended to be a nation in the 1920 treaty of Serves, but then European powers, urged by the sadistic Turks, Arabs, and Iranians, refused to make it a country.
Much debate comes from this region, mainly from the Kurds desire to claim their basic human rights to live with dignity and have a freedom of speech-which has been denied to them in each of the aforementioned countries. Many deny the rights or the existance of a Kurdish State, however they are the largest ethnic group without their own state.

AttaTurk (AKA Attafuck), Saddam Hussein, and the Syrian government have tried to exterminate the Kurds, but non of their attempts have been succesful or ever will be, biji kurdistan, bimrin konadar.

Get the Kurdistan mug.Being Kurdish is one of the best things you can be. If you are lucky enough to be part of this amazing community then you should consider yourself the King of the world. These people are amazing, friendly social, lovable, perfect in every way.
Kurdish girls are a different species than you commoners. They are strong and powerful, and if you get on the wrong side of them, you should run. That is the only way to get out of a fight with them unscathed.
Kurdish boys are more powerful than you could ever imagine, yes, they are not in the same league as the girls, but they will be your ultimate nightmare if you hurt their loved ones badly.
They are kind and sociable people, and born comedians too. Their boys are handsome and their girls are hot and you would be lucky to be in a relationship with them. You should never break up with a Kurd or it will be he last thing that you do.

Get the Kurdish mug.A group of Kurds. Mostly belonging to the Alevi religion. Staunch supporters of the hdp and pkk. They live in north London and the areas surrounding it. The boys are constantly needing to get haircuts and posting pictures of their new creps on Snapchat. The girls have very nice eyebrows, take lots of selfies and wear skinny jeans and play the saz. They laugh very loudly. They shorten their names on instagram and speak MLE or Jafaican with Turkish and Kurdish words thrown in so that no one else understands anything they are saying. Oh, and they are also very cliquey.
