Sorameri (Arabic: سورمیری, Kurdish: Soremeyrî, Persian: سرخه مهری), is a Kurdish tribe living in western and southwestern Iran, as well as parts of eastern Iraq.

History

Sorameri is short for Sorkheh Mehri, which means "a red-haired leader". The Sorameri Kurds are scattered around the provinces of Hamadan, Lorestan, Ilam, Khuzestan, Kermanshah, Sorkheh Mehri, and Cham Seyl in Iran, and the cities of Khanaqin, Badra, and Ali al-Gharbi in Iraq. The Sorameris follow Shia Islam and speak Southern Kurdish.
