The most correct statement regarding Southwest Asia would be:

B) The Kurdish people do not have an ethnic homeland.

The Kurdish people have their own language, traditions, and in some places, their own security and goverments, but still they lack of homeland. They settled in the mountainous region comprehending Iran, Iraq, Syria and Turkey.

After the World War I, the Allies splitted the Ottoman Empire and promesed the Kurds an independent nation. This never happened and the Kurdish region was divided in Syria, Iraq and Turkey. After the Gulf War, the Iraqui kurdish region became the only population to become a semi-autonomus goverment known as the The Kurdish Regional Government (KRG). But it stills remains being a federal entity of Iraq.
