The '''Kurds''' are an [[ethnic group]] living in a region which extends from the Taurus mountains, to the Zagros Mountains in [[Turkey]], [[Iran]], and [[Iraq]].<ref>Appiah & Gates, ''The Dictionary of Global Culture'', Alfred A. Knopf, New York 1997</ref> They speak Kurdish, a language belonging to the Indo-Iranian branch of the [[Indo-European language]] family. Most Kurds strongly desire a homeland, and their [[nationalism]] has led to them being persecuted, especially in [[Turkey]], which is home to more Kurds than any other nation. Most Kurds are [[Sunni]] [[Muslims]]; [[Sufism]] (a spiritual and universalist movement founded by [[Hazrat Inayat Khan]] early in the 20th century) is widely practiced as well.
