Sunni Triangle

The Sunni Triangle is a region in Iraq, roughly shaped like a triangle, that has historically been a stronghold of Sunni Muslims. It includes cities like Baghdad, Falluja, and Ramadi. This area was central to Iraq’s political and social life and played a significant role during the post-2003 invasion period, often experiencing violence and unrest as Sunni communities felt marginalized in the new government. The term highlights the geographic and religious landscape that influenced Iraq's internal conflicts and efforts for stability.
