ReÅŸwan (tribe)
ReÅŸwan, (; ) also known as ReÅŸiyan, is a Kurdish tribe, native to the western frontier of Kurdistan, mostly populating Adıyaman, Gaziantep, KahramanmaraÅŸ and Malatya provinces in Turkey and also present in Konya and Ankara provinces, Raqqa in Syria, and Qazvin Province in Iran. Members of the tribe mostly adhere to the Hanafi school of Islam but some are Alevi. Etymology Nuh AteÅŸ, a scholar and editor of Bîrnebûn, suggests that the name ReÅŸwan is a compound of the Kurdish words () and the plural form ''-ân''. Stefan Winter argues ReÅŸwan can be understood as "The Blacks" in Kurdish.

A neighbourhood (British English, Irish English, Australian English and Canadian English) or neighborhood (American English; American and British English spelling differences, see spelling differences) is a geographically localised community within a larger city, town, suburb or rural area, sometimes consisting of a single street and the buildings lining it. Neighbourhoods are often social communities with considerable face-to-face interaction among members.
