This research paper will focus on the geopolitical issues of Kurdistan. Kurdistan, being a nation without a state, has caused it to face war, terror, and discrimination. An example of this is the chemical gas attack in 1988, killing approximately 5,000 Kurds. The paper will analyze the several different perspectives of scholars on the situation in Kurdistan. It will also cover how Kurdistan’s geographical location and the placement of its borders have an effect on the nation. All four parts of Kurdistan (Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western) will be touched upon. Citations will include literary works (books, scholarly articles, etc.) about Kurdistan’s history specifically in geopolitics and also its current status. The main idea of the paper is to address and analyze the situation in Kurdistan, concentrating on the geopolitical aspect of it.
