Comedians born in Kurdistan
Turkey 馃嚬馃嚪
Rather than a city, Kurdistan is a broad cultural and geographic region spanning parts of southeastern Turkey, northern Iraq, western Iran, and northern Syria, and it is the homeland of the Kurdish people. Its landscape is largely mountainous, and its history and identity are deeply rooted. Comedy and satire have a real place in Kurdish culture, and as live stand-up develops across the region, performers increasingly bring shows in Kurdish and other languages to local venues.
