    There are an estimated 150 to 200 million native speakers of Iranian languages, the five major groups of Persians, Lurs, Pashtuns, Kurds and Baloch accounting for about 90% of this number.[36] Currently, most of these Iranian people live in Iran, the Caucasus (mainly Ossetia, Azerbaijan and Georgia), Tajikistan, Uzbekistan (especially Samarkand and Bukhara), Afghanistan, Pakistan and the Kurdish majority populated areas of Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria.

    Due to recent migrations, there are also large communities of speakers of Iranian languages in Europe, the Americas, and Israel.
