The variables are <independent and identically distributed> if they all have one common probability distribution and every finite selection satisfies
$$
\mathbb P(X_{n_1}\in B_1,\ldots,X_{n_k}\in B_k)
=\prod_{j=1}^k\mathbb P(X_{n_j}\in B_j)
$$
for distinct indices and arbitrary Borel sets. The condition concerns joint distributions, not merely pairwise correlations.
