Iraq
The settlement areas of the Yazidis in Iraq include the city of Shingal, Khana Sor, Sinune, Zorava, Gohbal, Borek , Dohula, Dugure, Siba Sheikh Khidir, Til Ezer, Gir Zerk, Tal Qasab, Tal Banat, Hardan, Kocho of the Sinjar District.[14] Shekhan, Ba'adra, Lalish, Mahad of the Shekhan District and Khatare, Bozan, Beban, Babira, Dokhata, Sreshka, Khawshaba of Tel Kaif District. There are also Yazidis in Bashiqa and Bahzani in the Al-Hamdaniya District. These settlements are inhabited by Yazidis and are located in the Nineveh Governorate in northern Iraq and belongs to the disputed territories of northern Iraq. Other Yazidi villages such as Sharya and Khanke are located in the Simele District of the Dohuk Governorate in Kurdistan Region.[15][16] Yazidis of the Haweri tribe live in the village of Dayrabun and in the surrounding area in the Zakho District of Dohuk Governorate.[17] The Arabization-policy of the Ba'ath Party destroyed many Yazidi villages and created new collective settlements from the 1960s to the 1980s. The new Yazidi villages were mainly given Arabic names.[18]
Turkey
The Yazidis in Turkey lived mainly in southeastern Anatolia, especially in the Tur Abdin region, namely in the villages of Taqa (Oyuklu), Kefnas (Çayırlı), Bacin (Güven), Denwan (Çörekli), Kherabya (Yenice), Koçan etc. in the Midyat District of the Mardin Province and in Efshe (Kaleli), Qolika (Değirmencik), Mezre (Çilesiz), Geliye Sora (Güneli), Khanik (Mağaracık), Fisqin (Sapanlı) in the Nusaybin District of Mardin Province and in Kiwekh (Mağara) in the İdil District of the Şırnak Province.[19][20] Other Yazidi villages in Turkey are Cinerya (Yolveren) in the Batman Merkez District of the Batman Province and Hacre (Yolkonak), Feqira (Üçkuyular), Kelhok (Kuşçukuru), Qorikh (Uğurca), Shimiz (Oğuz), Hamduna (Kurukavak), Bazivan (Kumgeçit), Geduk (Deveboynu), Shahsim (Onbaşı), Dusha (Meydancık), Tekheri (Uğrak) in the Beşiri District of the Batman Province.[21][22][23] There were also Yazidi villages in the Viranşehir District of the Şanlıurfa Province.[8][24] Other former Yazidi settlement areas are located in the provinces of Diyarbakır and Siirt.[25] The Turkification of geographic names in Turkey renamed the Yazidi villages into Turkish names.[26] In the 1980s, there were about 60,000 Yazidis in Turkey.[8] Today there are about 5,000 Yazidis in Turkey.[9][10] Almost all the Yazidis from Turkey have fled their settlements due to oppression by Ottoman authorities and militias. Most Yazidis, originally from Turkey, currently live in Germany, Armenia and Georgia. Some of them have also fled to Sinjar in Iraq. The small Yazidi villages were mostly uninhabited after the expulsion of the Yazidis from Turkey and were considered extinct. After the mass escape of the Yazidis from Sinjar in 2014, many Yazidis from Iraq have temporarily fled to the extinct Yazidi villages in Turkey.[27][28] Some Yazidis who are originally from Turkey and currently live in Germany trying to return to their villages but they are threatened by paramilitary and islamic-fundamentalistic groups.[29]

Syria
The settlement areas of the Yazidis in Syria includes the surrounding villages around the city of Afrin, such as Basufan, Feqira, Baflun, Qastel Jindo, Shirkan, Qatma, Qibar etc. The city of Afrin itself is predominantly inhabited by Kurds. But also many Yazidis live in Afrin. About 20,000 Yazidis live in Syria in several dozen villages around the region of Afrin. An exact number of the Yazidis in Syria and their villages is unknown. Some estimates are from 21 villages, others from 23 villages and others from 26 villages of the Yazidis in the region of Afrin. The second largest settlement area of the Yazidis in Syria is located in the governorate of al-Hasakah in the region of Jazīra in northeastern Syria. Close to Tirbespi (al-Qahtaniyya) lie the Yazidi villages of Drechik, Mizgeft, Chelhumiye, Cucumber Shemo, Tell Khatun, Otelja and Alaresh. Close to Amuda lie the Yazidi villages Khirbet Khazal, Khirbet Khwe, Tell Hishk, Kulye, Merkeb, Khirbet Feqira, Qislachuk, Gondor, Kerengo, Dogerki and Chetele. North of al-Hasakah are the Yazidi villages Khirbet Khidir, Tell Tawil, Slemaniye, Tolko, Zeydiye, Berzan, Jidale, Jdeyde, Tell Teyr, Gumar, Gumar Gharbi, Tell Aswad, Mehmudiye, Antariye, Morik, Nasriye, Khirbet Jamal, Awgira , Hasheri, Mehek, Mozko, Khirbet Dilan and Bur Said. Near Sere Kaniye (Ras al-Ayn) along the Khabur River are other Yazidi villages such as Asadiye, Tell Sakhar, Tell Beydar, Merekis, Khan Temir, Shukriye, Lizga, Chava, Derdere, Tell Eliye, Abu Jarade, Tell Naif, Khirbet Batana, Tell Khanzir and Sheikh Hmud. The Yazidi villages were almost completely destroyed and bombed by the civil war in Syria and by the procedure of the Islamic State and the Turkish military operation in Afrin. Previously, IS terrorists destroyed Yazidi temples and desecrated Yazidi tombs there. Presumably, all the Yazidis fled Syria if they were not killed.[30][31]
Historical references
The term Ezidkhan is also often found in the sacred texts of the Yezidi. An example of this is the Qesîda Şerfedîn (The message of Sherfedin):[32]
- Ciwabê bidne Êzîdxanê (Proclaims the message in the Land of the Yezidis)
- Bila qayîmkin Îmanê (They should consolidate and defend their faith)
- Şerfedîn mîr e li dîwanê (Sherfedin is the prince in residence)
