Hakkari (historical region)

Hakkari is an old place where lots of people used to live a long, long time ago. It's like one big area with lots of small places inside it where people had their homes and farms. Hakkari is found in the mountains of the country called Turkey, which is not too far from a place called Iraq. The people who lived in Hakkari a long time ago are called Kurds, and they had their own special language and way of living. They had to make use of the mountains to grow their crops and the streams to get water. The people who lived in Hakkari were very tough and brave, and it was not easy to live there because the weather was often very cold and harsh. Nowadays, Hakkari is still there, but it is not as important as it used to be, and not many people live there now.
