In ١٨٩٢, the Ottoman army burned the village of Barzan for the first time. From the establishment of the Iraqi state until the fall of the Ba'ath regime, Barzan and its surrounding areas were destroyed and burned ١٦ times by the British army and the Iraqi state. Barzan is a center of revolution and Kurdayeti, and many great leaders came from this village. Throughout their lives, they struggled for freedom, the rejection of oppression, and the rights of the Kurdish people, and they tried to secure those rights. Among them were Sheikh Abdulsalam, Sheikh Ahmad Barzani, and Mustafa Barzani. Photographed by Dr. Muhammad Salih Jumaa
