The Christians of Iraq are considered to be one of the oldest
surviving continuous Christian communities in the world.
The vast majority are Eastern Aramaic-speaking ethnic Assyrians,
Armenians, Arabs, Kurds and Turcoman extant also.

In Iraq, Christians numbered about 1,500,000 in 2003,
representing just over 5% of the population of the country.
They numbered over 1.4 million in 1987 or 8% of the population.[1]
After the Iraq War, it was estimated that the number of
Christians in Iraq had dropped to less than 450,000 by 2013.[2]

Christians live primarily in Baghdad, Basra, Mosul, Arbil and
Kirkuk and in Assyrian towns and regions such as the Nineveh
Plains in the north.[3]
