Comments[edit]

So lets start the discussion. By the way, this is a contradictory statement: "Many Kurds had expected independence on the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire, and believed that the new Turkish republic had betrayed them — the Republic of Ararat was a culmination of this anger."

I've removed the etymology of the word "Ararat" becuase it's already mentioned in the relevant article, Mount Ararat. Khoi khoi 06:10, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Which 'word Kurd' did I remove? That part about Mt Ararat is from Mount Ararat. Deniz^T_C 06:08, 29 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Flag[edit]

I cannot find any sources that mention to the design　of Mount Ararat on the flag. Most of sources said only Kurdistan flag, Independent Kurdistan flag, Kurdish flag with tricolor.

Naming[edit]

According to sources, the term "Republic of Ararat" is mainly used for the Yerevan government (Democratic Republic of Armenia). I think the title such as Kurdish Republic of Ararat is better for this article. Takabeg (talk) 04:56, 14 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

about real flag of Ararat Republic[edit]

I CHANGED TO REAL VERSION OF FLAG OF ARARAT REPUBLIC > I AM KURDISH AND YOU CAN NOT CHANGE MY HISTORY WITH UNREAL THINGSShewanKara (talk) 18:16, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

this so called flag is one of the most unrealistic flag ever, first the republic was not only around the ararat, second there are no real, non reliable sources.

stop with this nonsense. Qijik (talk) 13:26, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
