Erbil, also known as Hewler (Kurdish: Hewlêr, Central Kurdish: ھەولێر; Arabic: أربيل Arbīl), is the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan. It is located northwest of Baghdad, and its governorate has a permanent population of approximately 1.61 million as of 2011.
Human settlement at Erbil can be dated back to possibly 5000 BC, and it is one of the oldest continuously inhabited areas in the world. At the heart of the city is the ancient Citadel of Arbil. The earliest historical reference to the region dates to the Ur III dynasty of Sumer, when king Shulgi mentioned the city of Urbilum – the ancient Sumero-Akkadian-Assyro-Babylonian name of modern-day Arbil. The city became an integral part of Assyria from the 25th century BC to the end of the 7th century BC. Erbil remained a part of the Geo-Political province of Assyria from the beginning of the 6th century BC, and was under the rule of many regional powers in turn, including the Median Empire, the Achaemenid Empire (Achaemenid Assyria), Macedonian Empire, Seleucid Empire, Parthian Empire, Roman Empire and Sassanid Empire. During the Parthian era to early Sassanid era (C.150 BC - C.250 AD) Erbil became the capital of the Neo-Assyrian state of Adiabene. Following the Arab Muslim conquest of Persia, the Arabs dissolved Assyria (then known as Assuristan/Athura) as a geo-political entity in the mid-7th century AD, and during medieval times the city came to be ruled by the Seljuk and Ottoman Turks.

The Pentagon tells CNN's Barbara Starr that the U.S. has sent another round of airstrikes against ISIS to Irbil, Iraq.
Final preparations before the race begins. Runners register with officials for the Irbil six kilometre race. The event has been set up by the Irbil Marathon organisation, together with several local NGOs, to mark the UN's International Day of Peace. "We do celebrate and remember this event every year. Either by organising a race or by organising music concerts," says Sartip Fareeq, race organiser. "This day is very important to us and we would like the whole world to remember it and to implement it every day so we can all live in peace," he adds. Around 500 runners gather at the starting line in Sami Abdulrahman Park. But the race doesn't begin as planned with many setting off before the starting signal is given. The route takes them out onto the streets of Irbil. Peace is a poigna...
The Irbil Citadel – a World Heritage site in the center of the city has protected its inhabitants for Millennia and, until recently, was billed as the planet’s oldest inhabited structure. Its residents were recently moved on to make way for renovations that appear aimed at creating a tourist trap to rival the Acropolis. The souq, a middle eastern traditional market, at the base of the citadel buzzes with shoppers and, nearby, street musicians entertain tourists in a park filled with fountains.

Irbil, Kurdish region 1. Exterior of Kurdish parliament 2. SOUNDBITE: (Kurdish) Massoud Barzani, president of the Kurdish region: (includes cutaways) ''We don't accept any provocative act. If we want to separate, we will do it, without hesitation or fears. There are some chauvinist people (referring to Sunni leaders) who threaten that they will take what they believe is theirs by force (meaning they want to secede) when they have gathered strength. You cannot do anything today and in the future - the time of threats has gone. We would like to say that we are with a federal Iraq. We are an inseparable part of Iraq and the decisions issued by the premier and the presidency will be put into force in Kurdistan, in deed and in word, more than in Ramadi or Basra (Sunni dominated towns).'' ...
Miriam jest dziewczynką, która musiała opuścić Karakosz ze względu na działalność Państwa Islamskiego. Wraz z innymi chrześcijanami znalazła schronienie w jednym z obozów. Jej pragnieniem było odnalezienie Sandry - przyjaciółki. Bóg odpowiedział. Jednak potrzeby są ogromne. Z tego powodu Open Doors rozszerzyło już istniejące tam programy pomocy humanitarnej. To jednak może się udać tylko wtedy, gdy duża liczba osób żyjących w wolnych krajach, odpowie na potrzeby braci i sióstr w Iraku i Syrii. Żeby pokryć wszystkie koszty, potrzeba środków finansowych w granicach 10 milionów euro. Do przewidzenia jest również to, że także po roku 2016 trzeba będzie kontynuować ten program. Pomóż już teraz!

Erbil is generally safe, with a large police presence on the streets and at all the intersections. We do suggest that expatriates take certain precautions when traveling on foot. It is advised that people walk in pairs or in small groups. Having someone who speaks the language in the group would be advisable as well. These suggestions apply even more so to women and children.

This video is my own personal experience in that I had in Erbil, Iraq and only Erbil. I did not travel around anywhere else in Iraq and can not speak for other places. But from my knowledge and research, Erbil is one of the most peaceful cities within Iraq and varies greatly in culture due to the Kurdistan way of life and government, which they're very proud of. Please take this video as an educational experience about another city in Iraq aside from the ones we see/hear on the news every day. Political or negative comments will not be welcome.

Canciones en tu corazn
Te viven te cantan,
Te cuentan sus sueos
Y desgarran tu garganta...

Canciones que se cantan solas
Y no te dejan dormir.

Se aduean de tu lengua
