'Invisible Nation'

More than four thousand U.S. troops haven been killed in Iraq since the March 2003 invasion. Of those deaths, not a single soldier has died in the northern part of Iraq known as Kurdistan. The Kurdish region of Iraq has known relative peace and stability since the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq. That wasn't the case before the war.

Quil Lawrence is The World's Middle East correspondent. He's also the author of a new book, 'Invisible Nation: How the Kurds' Quest for Statehood is Shaping Iraq and the Middle East'.
