Pashtun people aren't even from afghanistan, they are from India, they came at the time of mahmud of ghazni that bastered invited them to afghanistan.
I gotta tell u guys a secret : Pakistan an Islamic state was founded so Communist Russians cannot reach Indian Ocean.
“Oh Gods, from the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger, and
the vengeance of the Afghan–deliver us.”
~An old Hindu saying
Those are excellent drawings/paintings of these historic figures
One of my best friends is a Pashtun afghan, one thing you don’t do is piss off a Pashtun……
Love my ancient afghan land. AFGHANISTAN IS BEAUTIFUL YET A VICIOUS CIRCLE FOR EMPIRES.
Please make documents of hazara people of Afghanistan on that time !
The timeline of each event would have placed things in perspectives in the flow of history.
Respect to Sher Ali , the reformer
Afghanistan’s main problem is we are land locked.
British did their fair share of oppression throughout the world.

My lovely country
This land has been at war non stop for 40+ years…
Can you imagine if there was peace instead, Afghanistan was making good modern progress before the wars started in 70s until now…
I really liked this series because it seems well provided, and I have already heard about the nickname of Afghanistan which made it very intriguing to me and thus made me watch these videos
we pashtun are not enemy of any nation . any culter and any religion . we love all humans . we are in long time war . we need peace . we need help .
Land of barbarism and savagery
Afghanistan is not at all "the graveyard of empires"
Afghanistan could've become an Asian powerhouse, sad what was their fate.
What a tragic country. I think Afghanistan would have been a great country had this 2 leaders did not pass away at the wrong time. I think the country is cursed to become a failed state. Their misfortunes are all RNG related, they themselves played well.
I assume everything was fine for Afghanistan after that.
Reminds of d Meiji era modernization in Japan, but this one ☝️ won’t work.
Lytton wanted a king 🤴 yakub (Jacob) indebted to brits. Hail Britannia!
With friends 👫 like these, who needs enemies.
Afghanistan can be conquered but not governed. A Chinese saying perfectly described this, "Mountains high and Emperor far away".
revisionist narrative
