Iraq
Iraq occupies the ancient heartland of Mesopotamia, where the Tigris and Euphrates rivers have shaped civilization for millennia. The landscape shifts from desert plains and marshlands in the south to the Kurdish highlands in the north, with date palms lining riverbanks and the call to prayer punctuating city mornings.
