Nashville is said to have the largest population of Kurds of any city in the United States.
Kurds are the people who live in the northern part of Iraq and adjacent areas of Turkey and Iran. Many dub that area Kurdistan, although it is not an official country.
When elections were held in Iraq in 2005, Nashville was one of five foreign cities that also had polling places. The polling station was placed in Nashville because of the large contingent of Iraqi Kurds.
