The Iraqi people ( Arabic: العراقيون ʿIrāqīyūn, Kurdish: گهلی عیراق Îraqîyan, ʿIrāqāyā, ) are the citizens of the modern country of Iraq.
Arabs have been the majority in Mesopotamia since the Sasanian Empire (224-637). Arabic was spoken by the majority in the Kingdom of Araba in the first and second centuries, and by Arabs in al-Hirah from the third century. Arabs were common in Mesopotamia at the time of the Seleucid Empire (3rd century BC). The first Arab kingdom outside of Arabia was established in Iraq's Al-Hirah in the third century. Arabic was a minority language in northern Iraq in the eighth century BC, from the eighth century following the Muslim conquest of Persia it became the dominant language of Iraqi Muslims because Arabic was the language of the Quran and of the Abbasid Caliphate.
Kurds who are Iraqi citizens live in the mountainous Zagros Mountains of northeast Iraq to the east of the upper Tigris. Modern genetic studies indicate that Iraqi Arabs and Kurds are distantly related. Arabic and Kurdish are Iraq's national languages.
