Inclusion of Kurdish Language and Kurdistan as a Country on IMDb
Hi IMDb Team,
I would like to request to add Kurdish as a language option and Kurdistan as a country on IMDb.
This inclusion is crucial for several reasons:
The Kurdish language and Kurdistan as a country represent a significant cultural identity. Including them would enhance cultural diversity on IMDb. With over 45 million Kurdish people worldwide, this inclusion would acknowledge and celebrate their presence on IMDb.
Also, it would empower Kurdish filmmakers to accurately represent their work and contribute to the global film database.
Recognizing Kurdish language and Kurdistan as a country would help promote and appreciate Kurdish cinema on a global scale.
I kindly urge you to consider this request. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

@Heval Thank you for the suggestion.
Kurdish is already supported as a language for titles in IMDb, please see https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?primary_language=ku
Our supported country list is located at https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/other-submission-guides/country-codes/G99K4LFRMSC37DCN which itself is (mostly) derived from the ISO 3166 list at https://www.iso.org/iso-3166-country-codes.html so before we could add it, Kurdistan would need to be included in the ISO list.
Hope this helps.
