Syrian Kurdistan
Syrian Kurdistan or Rojava (Kurdish: Rojavayê Kurdistanê, lit. 'Kurdistan where the sun sets') is a region in northern Syria where Kurds form the majority. It geographically surrounds three noncontiguous enclaves along the Turkish and Iraqi borders: Afrin in the northwest, Kobani in the north, and Jazira in the northeast. The term started to become more widely known as Kurdish nationalist groups and parties started to use it in 2013 to describe the political entity later known as "Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria". However, this usage was officially dropped in 2016 in favor of a more inclusive name to the heterogenous area under PYD control.

Kurdish nationalists consider Syrian Kurdistan as one of the four Lesser Kurdistans that comprise Greater Kurdistan, alongside Iranian Kurdistan, Turkish Kurdistan, and Iraqi Kurdistan. A significant part of the Kurdish community of Afrin was displaced during the Turkish-backed Operation Olive Branch in 2018.

It is a founding member of the National Coordination Committee for Democratic Change. It is the leading political party among Syrian Kurds. The PYD was established as a Syrian branch of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in 2003, and both organizations are still closely affiliated through the Kurdistan Communities Union (KCK).

Vismod
A vismod (abbreviation of visually modified or visual modification) is a vehicle, aircraft, or other object that has been altered to simulate military equipment used by an enemy force, in order to make military exercises more realistic. "Vismod" also refers to the specific alterations made for this purpose. The term is used by the elements of the United States Department of Defense, who use vismod during training, sometimes with specialized OpFor (opposing force) military units. Vismod is also sometimes used in filmmaking and television production to simulate real-world military equipment required for a scene that cannot be procured due to financial or other complications.

Opposing force
An opposing force (alternatively enemy force, abbreviated OPFOR or OpFor) is a military unit tasked with representing an enemy, usually for training purposes in war game scenarios. The related concept of aggressor squadron is used by some air forces.

At a basic level, a unit might serve as an opposing force for a single scenario, differing from its 'opponents' only in the objectives it is given. However, major armies commonly maintain specialized groups trained to accurately replicate real-life enemies, to provide a more realistic experience for their training opponents. (To avoid the diplomatic ramifications of naming a real nation as a likely enemy, training scenarios often use fictionalized versions with different names but similar military characteristics to the expected real-world foes.)

There are generally 5 or 6 chiwogs in each gewog, and in turn several gewogs in each dzongkha (district). To illustrate, there are 50 chiwogs in Paro District alone. The majority of chiwogs are small rural communities; more densely populated areas tend to be separate thromdes, or municipalities.

Often, participants in the CDMP are also trained at a geo level for better coordination.

The street is known for its flagship retail stores, including Liberty, Hamleys, Jaeger and the Apple Store. The Royal Polytechnic Institution, now the University of Westminster, has been based on Regent Street since 1838.
