The Turkish domination in Iraq, which started when the khutbah (sermon) in Baghdad was read on behalf of the Great Seljuk Sultan Tuğrul Bey in 1055, continued for approximately 900 years until 1918. The Oghuz tribes who migrated from Central Asia started to settle these lands 2700 years ago and their distribution in Iraq reached its final form during the Seljuk period.

İn addition, the population who lost their mother tongue but is aware of their Turkish origin is estimated to be over one million. Kirkuk, Erbil, Talafer and villages of the Bayat region, which are considered as cultural centers, are the regions where Turkmens mostly live. In addition, several hundred thousands Turkmen live in Baghdad.
