Explanation:
Although the term "Afghan" has historically been used to refer to members of an ethnic group known as the Pashtuns, Afghanistan is a multicultural and multiethnic country. The state was created in the middle of the eighteenth century by the political expansion of Pashtun tribes, although it was not united until the nineteenth century. The state now includes Persian-speaking (Tajiks, Hazaras, and Aymaqs) and Turkic-speaking (Uzbeks and Turkmens) inhabitants. Those parties have sought increased political legitimacy since the Communist takeover of 1978 and the following civil war, but the state's survival has not been substantially questioned. Millions of migrants may have experienced a shared experience of exile, which has sparked a new national sentiment.
Afghanistan is a landlocked Asian country surrounded by Pakistan, Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and China, with 251,825 square miles (652,225 square kilometres). The geography includes a combination of core highlands, foothills, and plains on the outside. The climate of the nation is dry and continental. Summers are hot and dry, while winters are freezing and snowy in the mountains. Although the monsoon is affecting certain places in the east, rainfall is modest. Steppes cover most of the nation, with arid parts and a few patches of farmed land thrown in for good measure.
There is pastoral nomadism, subsistence mountain agriculture, and irrigation. Kabul became the capital towards the end of the eighteenth century. It is situated in a large basin along the route that connects India with Central Asia. Although there are no accurate census data, the population was estimated to be 23,738,000 in 1997. The vast majority of individuals live in rural areas (80 percent). Kabul's population peaked at over one million in the 1980s but fell when the Communist rule collapsed in 1992. The largest cities are Mazar-e Sharif, Herat, and Kandahar (Qandahar), each having over 200,000 people. Jalalabad, Kunduz, Baghlan, and Ghazni are all important cities.
