Poster of Kurdistan
Eurominority.eu and Kurdish Institute of Paris (Institut kurde de Paris) just released a new map of Kurdistan. This new poster shows the main cities, mountains, rivers and lakes that form historical Kurdistan. Two additional maps give a good point of view of the Kurdish provinces distributed among the Turkish, Syrian, Iranian and Iraqi States. To finish, a simplified map of dialects of the Kurdish language make this new poster certainly one of the most synthetic maps of historical Kurdistan.
