"The Highway of Conquest"..finally a term that describes Afghanistan better.
Why would you upload an incomplete lecture
I just love the audience remember who keeps giggling.
A little correction @ 5:00- the Hotak Empire was ruled by a local Pashtun dynasty, predating the Durranis.
Why gets cut-off in middle of talk. Disappointing. Drop in quality.
Thank you❤️

Mahmud gazni had Afghan Mother!! A Key Point!
Well technically his mother wasn’t Afghan since his mother was a Tajik woman . At that time afghans were still considered only pashtuns .
@@Spitamenes007 when he says afghans he means people of todays afghanistan not just pashtuns..
@@farhadnoori4213 oh shut up
who the fuck cares about mom? His father is fucking Sabuktegin get used to it chump
@@masih9595 Pashtuns and Israelites
Some people refer to Hazaras as Changizies or decents of Changiz so the nomed was probably talking about Hazaras not the King Changiz Khan
Wow, the algorithm really had a pretty crude sense of humour recommending this to me with Afghanistan in its current state.
I went to IUP and this prof seems so familiar. Interesting that Afghans would want Peshawar back, I thought they wanted Quetta
Historically, KPK and FATA were annexed into the British empire from Sikh Punjab, not Duranni's, and Pashtun parts of Balochistan came from the Chief Commissioners Province leased indefinitely to the British by the Khanate of Kalat. This really leaves Waziristan as the only region that negotiated directly with the British, and so the Durand agreement only retained the status quo (which was that these weren't Afghan territories), not create a new one. This is why the Afghan claims to Pakistani territory are bogus, but I guess this is a whole other debate.
Coming to his comments about Peshawar he clearly misses the mark. KPK Pashtuns are actually quite patriotic (From Jalalabad to Attock this region is part of the GT road belt and has prehistoric, geographical and cultural continuity with the Pothwar region of Punjab aka Gandhara). 2/3 of Pakistans Pashtuns are from this region and they will probably never vote in favor of merging with Afghanistan in case of a referendum so I'm not sure why Pakistan should be afraid. It's definitely pockets in Northern Balochistan and Waziristan where there is some degree of separatist concern. He is well versed in the cohesive strength of Afghan social fabric, but underestimates the Pashtun-Punjabi dynamic across the border in Pakistan is by and large cordial underlined by a strange yet effortless symbiotic dynamic that somehow works, and as long as that remains Pakistan's existence is not threatened.
“Mahmud ghaznawi was turk not an Afghan, what do you mean by that
Afghanistan has turks,tajiks,pashtuns,uzbeks,hazaras and many other ethnic groups
Alexander conquered India?! Thought he won a close war and realised that there are many more powerful empires waiting for him and turned back?
He only conquered the first kingdom in India. After that he turned back bc there were too many powerful empires in India
So, they are still pissed off at Genghis..... Maybe China won't get all that warm a welcome.
ghengis was mongol.
china is currently repressing its mongol population
If do not know basic geography and history better to keep your gap shut.
Above comment addressed to Norman Braslow.
Sarfraz MH Look, fella. I know both history and geography, obviously better than you do. Genghis' Mongols kicked Afghan ass throughly. As far as the afghans are concerned Mongols and Chinese are the same peoples. .
@@normanbraslow7902 . Nonsense. Get off you high horse. There is Mongolia , independent nation, and Mongols conquered China, ok.
First of all we don't have nationale identity in Greater khorasan/Afghanistan.
Afghan refer juste to pashton people and they make only 30 percent of population
Mr. Thomas, Pakistan already had a plebiscite from its people of KPK in 1945 who voted to join Pakistan. It is just for your information so that you don't confuse Kashmir issue with Peshawar where I was born.
Actually, the plebiscite was between Pakistan and India. However, I doubt the majority of KPK really care about this matter.
That's because the plebiscite didn't include joining Afghanistan and the plebiscite was done in 1947 March. Only 20% of the population was eligible to vote.
You're very WRONG !!! Firstly there was no Plebiscite. Secondly, in the elections of 1946 Pashtuns of KPK voted for Bacha khan who wanted a united india, and was against the creation of Pakistan. KPK was the only province where muslim league failed badly. But then again the partition was decided on the number muslims in the area and not what they wanted. Not sure what history are you reading sir. Stop spreading false information.
@@humza3333 this is false history. Pashtun's majority voted for Pakistan in the elections and that is a sort of plebiscite too as you have also admitted that it did took place but against Pakistan. Well a group of Pashtuns was against Pakistan but not the majority of KPK as there live some other nations as well. Also, the brits would never had given KPK to Pakistan if majority had not voted for her.
@@luvmite2758 all it takes is googling the 1946 elections and you'd have your answer ! Not sure why are you so adamant to deny that ! And elections were not the basis of partition... please read !!!
Sir one thing you said it wrong . Mehmod ghazni was not a turk empire . Ghaznivi is the largest cast of pashtun . I think you have some misleading by some by dallkhur pubjabis jelous people of all the time . . You have to search on ghaznivi tribe
What what but Ghaznivian Ware Tajiks..
@@shaiqjamal9364 lol . First you tajik people clean your blood When you meet someone, tell them your identity that you call half a pashtun/afghan and tajiks 😂😂😂
@@shaiqjamal9364 First of all, you do not know any race and ethnics because your history is in front of everyone .
@@shaiqjamal9364 You tajiks have used to be a king who had committed adultery with his sister .
@@shaiqjamal9364 Then he will address his nation, announcing that after today everyone will marry their mothers and sisters and daughters.
Bogus!
Afghan means Moaning and wailing and second name of Pashton tribe, Pashton came from Sulaiman Mountain ⛰ local in Pakistan.
Afghan is a fake name on this country 5000 years history shows that.
Word "Afghan" comes from Sanskrit work "Asvakan", the ancient name of people living in what is not Khyber in Pakistan. Also synonymously used for "cavalry".
Not all Afghans are Pashtuns. Afghan is a nationality, Pashtun is an ethnicity. There are Pashtuns, Tajiks, Turks, Uzbeks and Hazaras in Afghanistan and they are all Afghanis.
@@zainahmed6502 no Afghan is only used to describe Pashtuns, you’ve taken a country and forced everyone to live under your name, you will go back to Israel when the time comes
This didn’t age well 😂
It aged just fine. . . it's just background history for the cultures there.
Afghanistan was never conquered! People have tried but failed!
Myth. It has been conquered. The Greeks, the Mongols, the Sakas, the Arabs.
stop nonsense
Afghanistan was never conqered are you crazy or what
Loool why are you crying bro afghanistan was conquered many times by Turks Persians, Arabs and Mongols. You know what's funny back then our lands were known for its greatness both culturally and linguistically. But when the awghans(pashtuns) came they took us from the 17/18 century back to the 12 century. In fact, afghanistan situations is how the Mongols left it after their invasion. Nothing good apart from terrorism came from the awghans and until today they are crying about the lands their king sold to the British. The only reason why afghanistan exists is that the land was a buffer for the British and Soviets.
Wrong. Afghanistan was conquered over and over again
I think that various foreigners invading and establishing stable regimes for hundreds of years counts as Conquest, Wali.
