There are like 80 million Kurds in the world but Kurds never had their own state. Why?

No port, no monopoly on resources to sell to superpowers. Jared Diamond dabs on you all once again.

Have kurds ever invented something?
Is there any notable kurdish literature?

Saladin was kurdish, the Ayyubid Sultanate was kudish ruled and extended far over the kurdish homelands.
Afterwards they had a lot of autonomy within the Ottoman Empire, so no need for a separate state until the 1800s when the Ottoman's tried to consolidate power more.When the Ottoman Empire broke up after WW1, the French and English gentlemen drawing the new borders divided the kurdish lands between Turkey, Iran, Iran and Syria and the Turks, Persians and Arabs made damn sure they never managed to declare their own state.

Zand dynasy was Kurdish too

Kurds are just one of a thousand landless minority people in the area of the OP's map.
Iran is absolutely riddled with little ethnic, religious and linguistic enclaves. There are over 50 languages in daily use in Pakstan.
Baffling that so many didn't assimilate but also weren't ever genocided, going back thousands of years - the next conqueror would just make everybody kneel and then fuck off, because how could you wipe out every stupid little tribe? They must have seemed infinite.
It would probably be worse for them and better for the rest of the world if they were all armed and fought each other.
I used to think Turkey was going to kick off a wave of secularization and enlightenment but Erdogan went islamochud. So fuck'em Arm the Kurds. The Peshmerga is pretty cool.

the kurds were mountain tribes when the borders were being drawn after ww1, there are only 80 million now because of the green revolution, if it wasn't for aryan intellct they'd have bones through their noses and chuck spears at each other

Well a democratic Islamic world would be islamochud eventually if not outright at the onset, just due to fertility rate differences, for example if Iran went democratic today, are we sure a ahmadnajad type wouldn’t be elected because they thought the mullahs were not based enough, and even if instead say a ataturk is elected there, by next gen a islamochud will win elections as liberal Iranians have a China level birth rate, only question being would the chuds coming into power be the shia ones or the sunni ones in the periphery
