Abstract

The geographical factor is one of the most influential factors in shaping the strength of the state and its relationships, in addition to the impact of this factor on technological developments and political fluctuations. The state today is no longer an independent entity unaffected by the surrounding countries and regions. Iraq's ideal location, for example, has made it coveted by neighboring countries in particular and by countries around the world in general. This has prompted 

countries to compete to establish a foothold in Iraq and shape its policies. This has led to regional and international conflict and competition in the Middle East, with Iraq at the heart of this Conflicts.

In this research, we address the direct regional conflicts over Iraq. We have taken the policies of two countries as models – Iran and Turkey. It is well known that Iraq – especially in recent times – has been at the heart of events, and there have been interventions, some Iranian and some Turkish, in the period after 2014 We have divided the Scientific material of the search into two sections after an introduction to the topic. We devoted the first section to discussing Iranian interventions, while in the second section, we examined Turkish interventions in the Iraqi situation. We concluded the research with a conclusion summarizing the most important research findings and recommendations.
