- The ethnic groups in the Middle East in the transcontinental region commonly known with its geopolitical term; the Middle East. The region has historically been a crossroad of different cultures and languages. Since the 1960s, the changes in political and economic factors (especially the enormous oil wealth in the region and conflicts) have significantly altered the ethnic composition of groups in the region. While some ethnic groups have been present in the region for millennia, others have arrived fairly recently through immigration. The largest socioethnic groups in the region are Arabs, Kurds, Persians and Turks but there are dozens of other ethnic groups which have hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of members. Other indigenous, religious, or long-standing minority ethnic groups include: Arameans, Assyrians, Armenians, Bahrani , Baloch, Copts, Cappadocian Greeks, Cypriots, Druze, Gilaks, Greeks, Jews, Laz, Lurs, Mandaeans, Maronites, Mazanderanis, Mhallami, Nawar, Pontic Greeks, Rûm, Samaritans, Shabaks, Talysh, Tats and Zazas. Diaspora ethnic groups include: Albanians, Bengalis, Britons, Bosniaks, Chinese, Circassians, Crimean Tatars, Filipinos, French people, Georgians, Indians, Indonesians, Kawliya, Italians, Malays, Malayali, Pakistanis, Pashtuns, Punjabis, Romani, Sikhs, Sindhis, Somalis, Sri Lankans, Turkmens, and Sub-Saharan Africans.

- 中東の民族の一覧（ちゅうとうのみんぞくのいちらん）は、有史以来、中東に存在してきた民族の一覧。 中東という地域概念の範囲は一定ではないが、ここでは、イランからカフカス、西アジア（アナトリア、イラク、歴史的シリア、アラビア半島）、北アフリカ（エジプト、マグリブ諸国、エチオピア）を中心とした地域に関して述べ、21世紀までに消滅した民族も中東に歴史上存在した民族として含める。 中東地域は民族の十字路と呼ばれるように、中央アジア、南アジア、ヨーロッパなど周辺の地域との間で民族の移動と交流が盛んに行われており、中東と周辺地域との関連を抜きに民族集団の形成を考えることはできない。 (ja)
