Syrian Kurdish region

The Syrian Kurdish region, known as Rojava or the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria, is an area in northeastern Syria primarily inhabited by Kurdish people. It has established a semi-autonomous governance structure focused on local democracy, gender equality, and multi-ethnic inclusion. Though not officially recognized as an independent state, it operates with its own security forces, political institutions, and social services. The region is geopolitically significant due to its strategic location and diverse population, navigating complex relationships with the Syrian government, neighboring countries, and international actors amidst ongoing conflict in Syria.
