The Kurds were have thought to have settled as many as 4,000 years ago.[3] Arabs applied the name "Kurds" to the people of the mountains after they had conquered and Islamicized the region.[3] In the 1500s most Kurds fell under Ottoman Rule. Iraqi Kurds developed as a subgroup of the Kurdish peoples when Great Britain created the state of Iraq out of the Sykes-Picot Agreement of World War I.[4] The Kurdish people were expecting to soon gain independence from what they were promised in the Treaty of Sevres in 1920, but this was quickly overturned in 1923, when the Treaty of Lausanne established the Republic of Turkey over Kurdistan's borders.
