This is a hard question because I think it will all take place in parts, which will eventually become a whole. I've said this before, but this is the best analogy I can give:
A company finds a new producer for its software, but they have never done business with them before, and they are not well known or understood, but they have decided to give them *some* work. If the new producer does a really good job, better than the other producers, they will get more work.
Then, more companies will start to give them more work from other nations. If they do that work very well too, then they become a larger producer/company.
If Southern Kurdistan works very well, then people will begin to look at it as an example to hold up to the world. They will say "Kurds do well with their country, they are a good example of what can be done." So, in time, as Iran and Syria begin to crumble internally, it's likely that the Kurds from there will want to be part of the new Kurdistan, not part of Syria or Iran, but they might get a federation for the short term. If THEY both do well, then that "Federation" or "confederation" will join together. It will give the Kurds in Northern Kurdistan a lot of leverage, and that will give autonomy to the Kurds in Northern Kurdistan. I do not think that Turkey will break up, but I think eventually, it will not matter much because the playing field will be level, with Kurds leading the way.
I do not think there will ever be a Kurdistan UNLESS Kurds build it, and make it successful.
Never look down on somebody unless you are helping them up.
You grow up the day you have your first real laugh.... at yourself.
