Al-A'amiriya

Al-A'amiriya (Arabic العامرية) is a neighborhood situated in the western part of Baghdad, Iraq. It is located in the Karkh and Mansour district on the way to Anbar Province. It was an upper-class neighbourhood until about 2006, when it was devastated by war. Under Islamic State rule, many rural inhabitants were displaced from Anbar to Al-A'amiriya, resulting in even more demographic change.

This area is relatively modern, with its development beginning in the late 1960s. It is positioned between two key routes leaving Baghdad: the Airport Road and Abu Ghraib Road, the latter connecting to the city of Abu Ghraib and further extending to the western regions of Iraq. Due to its location in the west, Al-Amiriya has attracted many Sunni Arabs whose tribes trace their origins to the western parts of Iraq. This proximity to their ancestral regions in Anbar Governorate makes it a popular residential area for them. The majority of the local population belongs to the Al-Kubaisi, Al-Dulaim, and Zubaa tribes, with smaller communities of Christians and Kurds also present.
