"Kurds are also a majority of the population in the provinces of Kermanshah, West Azerbaijan, and Ilam."〕〔William Eagleton, 1988, ''An Introduction to Kurdish Rugs and Other Weavings'', University of California, Scorpion, 144 pages. ISBN 0-905906-50-0, ISBN 978-0-905906-50-8. "Iranian Kurdistan is relatively narrow where it touches the Soviet border in the north and is hemmed in on the east by the Azerbaijani Turks. Extending south along the border west of Lake Urmia is the tribal territory."〕 Kurds generally consider Iranian Kurdistan (Eastern Kurdistan) to be one of the four parts of a greater Kurdistan, which also includes parts of southeastern Turkey (Northern Kurdistan), northern Syria (Western Kurdistan), and northern Iraq (Southern Kurdistan).〔''Kurdish Awakening: Nation Building in a Fragmented Homeland'', (2014), by Ofra Bengio, University of Texas Press〕 According to the last census conducted in 2006, the four Kurdish-inhabited provinces in Iran, West Azerbaijan (2,873,459), Kermanshah Province (1,879,385), Kurdistan Province (1,440,156), and Ilam Province (545,787) have a total population of 6,738,787.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Iran Provinces )〕 Pockets of Lurs inhabit the southern areas of Ilam Province.

The Kurds of Khorasan Province in northeastern Iran are also adherents of Shia Islam. During the Shia revolution in Iran the major Kurdish political parties were unsuccessful in absorbing Shia Kurds, who at that period had no interest in autonomy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Passion and Death of Rahman the Kurd )〕 However, since the 1990s Kurdish nationalism has risen in the Shia Kurdish area, following the government's violent suppression of Kurds farther north.〔 ==History== ::''For the origin of the Kurds see History of the Kurdish people and Kurdish people.'' A very early record of confrontation between the Kurds and the Sassanid Empire appears in a historical text called the ''Book of the Deeds of Ardashir son of Babak''. The book explains the life of "Ardashir Papagan" or Ardashir I of Persia, the founder of the Sassanid Dynasty, and is written in the Pahlavi language. In this book, the author explains the battle between Kurdish King ''Madig'' and Ardashir.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Kârnâmag î Ardashîr î Babagân, Chapter 5 )〕 One of the most significant kingdoms within Ardashir I's dynasty was known as the House of Kayus (also ''Kâvusakân''), which remained a semi-independent Kurdish kingdom until A.D. 380, when Ardashir II removed the dynasty's last ruling member. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Iranian Kurdistan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
