What is going to happen in Afghanistan? ua-cam.com/video/Tr-J5aJD3Kw/v-deo.html Here is a link to the latest video I just made about Afghanistan over on my 2nd channel. This covers the major likely players in Afghanistan's future with potential scenarios.
UK is busy killing Afghans since 1839 in their quest to colonize Afghans like it did to India but since they were buthurt 3 times in a row it continues until 2021 with destroying Afghanistan trough its proxy state west Pakistan which it created illegally on Afghan-Indian soil in 1947 against all UN agreements, despite the fact it was defeated in the 3rd Afghan-Anglo war in 1919 not just only defeated on the field but also diplomatically in 1923 because the last real Afghan king Amanullah Khan signed a pact with USSR and thus freeing Durandline which his illiterate father was tricked by the British in 1889 “leasing” this land for 100 years! That’s why Afghanistan had to be destroyed in 1989 and they continu to destabilize and create havoc in Afghanistan abusing Islam since WW1 By means of carefully orchestrated Islamic uprise in 1929 it ousted king Amanullah khan by the own Afghan population and placed its puppet king which ruled for 40 years while being toppled by its own emotional idiot nephew the red prince Daud. Similar to 1979 Islamic uprise orchestrated by USA which is Britain’s partner since WW1 and very recently both had invaded Afghanistan under false pretext called 9/11 it also cultivated Taliban during their 20 years of occupation and puppet presidents karzai and ghani Sadly a repeat of 1929 1929 = 1979 Deluded “freedom fighters payed by the west: Bache Saqow = Ahmad Shah Massoud and other ashrar Western puppet king shah shuja & Nadir Shah = Karzai/Ghani/Taliban (Pakistan ISI) Patriots Afghans: Real Afghan King Amanullah Khan = President Dr. Najibullah While president Najibullah warned in 1989 the western world to stop supporting terrorism in Afghanistan. However geopolitics has no moral standards and is payed by Afghan blood In a certain way, the world is witnessing the revenge of afghans call it karma or whatever you want but Alexander the Great wrote: "May God keep you away from the venom of the Cobra, the teeth of the tiger, and the revenge of the Afghans."
I have been to Poland and I guess Afghans and Polish people have so much in common than we can admit. We have been squashed by super powers multiple times but survived with our heads up every single time.
Wow! What a great comment section. So many positive sayings about my homeland🇦🇫 It really shows that there are good hearted and smart people around the world who supports peace and prosperity all around the world.
@Atif Shah Why shouldn't people make fun of Islam, it's not such a great religion when it espouses convert, submit and pay, or die tactics. The religion of peace my ass. Of course it deserves mockery.
ALEXANDER THE GREAT 336 BC... MAY GOD KEEP YOU AWAY FROM THE VENOM OF COBRA AND THE TEETHS OF TIGER AND VENGEANC OF AFGHANS.... For smarts its good enough to understand
It is gut wrenching to watch the United States pull out our troops from Afghanistan. After being there for 20 years, we thought we had trained them well enough to protect themselves from the taliban. As I write this, the second and third biggest cities have been overtaken by the Taliban, Kabul is surrounded, and the entire country is on the brink of collapse. I fear for the women there, who will no longer be able to go to school, own a business, ect. We NEED to keep our word to the thousands of translators who have worked with us and evacuate ALL of them!
I am a U.S. Christian & pray for Afghanistan daily. I am ashamed & repent of the sorrow & destruction which I believe my nation has caused Afghanistan. Watching this, I am stunned to learn how very much the long history of Afghanistan is laden with war & foreigners from various countries coming invading. Location seems to be an aspect of that. On can even begin to wonder if Afghanistan has been cursed for some reason? Perhaps the people of Afghanistan can together pray for God's blessing in the future. Sorry if name icon comes up 2x. Computer glitch
Since you feel so ashamed of the U.S. you should donate all your money/property to the afghan people and renounce you citizenship and move to Afghanistan. Its the right thing to do.
It's ok. Us little guys are usually the ones paying the price for the ambitions of evil men, so there's some camaraderie there to be had if you ignore our national identities for a moment.
@@jamessickmore236 the right thing to do would be for the government of the US to own up to its mistakes and rebuild the country using the resources it stole from the country. One individual person giving up their wealth and property will have zero impact. If you have the time to make snidy comments on UA-cam maybe you should use that time to create a movement and influence the government to make up for its mistakes.
@@kryptoniteee lol How was Afghanistan a mistake? They had terrorist training camps throughout the country. Next you gonna tell me they don't hate the Infidels. Im just sad they didn't Nuke the place.
Diego Quaresma why you sound like, you got beaten by an Afghan. Hey, trust me you don’t want to talk about religion. Quran (60:8) : Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly. Believe me it is the most peaceful religion. Tell me if you have any better religion.
The war started extactly in the year that I was born. Now I am 42. I have never seen a peaceful Afghanistan. Afghanistan is truly a land of never ending wars. The roots of these wars are in the culture, in the history, in the mindsets, in the thinkings and in the soroudings. The roots are too deep and too old.
Raees Zargar you are absolutely correct in saying that Nepal just a poor country with no importance. Know that the best fighters that Afghanistan has, were bested by a bunch of poor Nepalese Gurkhas. Let that sink in. Gurkhas are the most superior fighting soldier that I have ever seen. On a side note; Afghanistan is pretty much worthless. “If” Afghanistan took advantage of it’s mineral deposits, then that would be different, but they don’t, and they likely never will. Especially since the Taliban are likely to take over in say the next year or two. Folks in Kabul had better get ready because that Olympic Soccer field is about to be used again to start lobbing off heads. Bet the Afghans wouldn’t mind some help from the Gurkhas then.
Deaths gamer well bud; if you put down your controller and left your parents basement, you’d realize that there had been 2 wars in the last 19 years. Some of us actually fought in them, and didn’t have to get all of our experience an Xbox PlayStation.
My first real job was at a restaurant and the head chef was Afghan, he taught me some very valuable lessons and was very strict. But he was also the most kind and sincere person. I can see why now, history of where you are from can really make the character of future generations.
Mass respect to afghan people from a Greek. Proud to have a common history. Let's both of our nation regain their ancient glory, and such a thing as allies.
Map is wrong... Afghanistan borders India as well... Terrorism sponsor Pak has illegally occupied that region.. It has cleansed the original population there and installed Pathans there
The Afghan people have a rich culture and as a blacksmith ive always thought that the best and most beautiful weapons and crafts came out of that region.
Oh, you're so lucky. Wear it like a badge of honor,friend. I fell in love with your people before the Soviets invaded. Amazing history. I've been heartsick for them the whole time,but hope their strength of character rubs off on the rest of us. 🇺🇸❤️🇦🇫
Recently met a group of Afghanis who fled due to the crisis of the Taliban taking control. They are such friendly, hardworking people. I was astounded by how ‘Western’ they are, Amazing at speaking English, and just so grateful to be in a safe country. The media always paints a negative picture of Afghanistan. I had a lovely conversation with a man named Gull who was a tour guide and lost everything due to the conflict. He told me he would take me on a great tour once the country becomes safe again, and I really wish it does. They are a resilient people and don’t deserve to always get the shit end of the stick. Long live Afghanistan!
I'm afghan and my parents fled to Pakistan during the soviet afghan war and i was born in Pakistan and now live in the UK, i wanted to develop a deeper understanding of my country and this has really helped me wrap my head around all the stories my parents told me as a child :)
I have had an infatuation with Afghanistan since I was a boy, watching a National Geographic documentary on Buzkashi and The Mujahadeen. I joke to my wife that I need to learn how to make clementine cake so I can hike Afghanistan. See The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty for that last part.
I have an Eritrean friend, we were always there for each other during the 3 months quarantine in China haha. Learned a lot about each other’s cuisines as well haha
It was a very good video and well documented. You have just missed the Durand line. Modern state of Afghanistan was neighboring British India but after creation of Pakistan in 1947 half of Afghanistan was given to Pakistan by British India and till now no Afghan government has accepted the Durand line as an international border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The line actually separated the Pashtun people who always willing to rejoin.
I truly wish peace and prosperity for your FABULOUS country but, need to work so hard, in order to reac those core objectives. We all should contribute into it. However, religion, power and money should stay out if it we want to reach our aim, to be able to build a nation where everyone could live peacefully beyond any creed and culture.
During the Mahabharata, Gandhari cursed her brother Shakuni, The ruler of Gandhara, that his Kingdom shall always suffer as her sons did in the War before dying. Gandhara was the ancient name of Afghanistan and Gandhari was an Afghan Princess. Looking at Afghanistan's history with Empires falling and rising every 50 years and most of them foreign, gives me chills.
Completely wrong lol. As an Afghan, it would be nice for others to stop claiming afghan history as Persian, Arab or Indian. Recently Indians have been relentless at claiming afghan history through a distant more than 2000 yrs old history where a small region was once ruled by an "Indian kingdom." Gandhara is mostly present day Pakistan and included small parts of southern Afghanistan. We were bactrian and in ancient times Afghanistan was called "Ariana" because we had Aryan tribes.
If you condense that much history down to 14 minutes only focusing on transfers of power and territorial shifts you can make most long standing places look like they are in constant chaos. A human lifetime to generations of stability often exist between two bullet points in a history book.
Afghanis are very tough, sincere and honest people. I've seen many Afghanis working in Karachi, some of the best people really. Love for Afghanistan ♥️
My boyfriend is from Afghanistan 🇦🇫 So I am trying to learn as much as I can cause I really don’t know anything about them. But he is amazing and loving and honest. He is here in the US and He is my best friend I am so in love with him I can’t imagine my life without him. So it is time I learn everything I can about them. He maybe here in the US but I don’t want him to be a US. I don’t want him to change. He is learning English and I am learning Pashto. I want him to remain the way he is that is what I feel in love with. ❤❤I look at him and My Breath gets taken away.
@@ahmadshahqaderi7285 no we haven't. There was only greek alphabet and greek style royal coins in afghanistan. But many greeks are of afghan origin. Because during the achaemenid empire, afghans soldiers were stationed in ancient thrace and athen and later joined the greek revolt and married greek women.
Overlord Chappa "rapist" hahahahaha said the highest child abuse region in the planet. Raping of children is a sign of weakness and moral decadence in men. But that should be expected from goat "herder"nations.
@It Ain't Me 1968 its more like arnt they tired of being invaded lol, my family motto is victory or death. I'm sure they understand this there because they definitely fight like it. They just need to heal and grow more powerful as they will and I hope they become rich because they shouldn't be a 3rd world country they should at least be second if not first but all the biggest countries invaded them so that no one else would annex afghan and get bigger I hate human greed.
@It Ain't Me 1968 nah man im Canadian my family is Scottish, you are right about that but it inst as true anymore most Afghani are educated in reading and writing just not English. A 1/3 of there population is in school rn.
Epimetheus it was a great video! However, I think you missed out on talking about the Durand line treaty, and the “breaking” of the treaty when Pakistan was made. Made a lot of people super super salty
Robustus there are many ethnicities in afghanistan. those who are of aryan ancestry (like ethnic afghans ie pashtuns), are well aware of their aryan ancestry. however most of afghans don't care so much about such stuff.
Am from Pakistan and everyone have to admit if you invade the country and have bad intentions you won't get out of Afghanistan in your way it would be in there way.. Afghanyano taa ta salamonna .. Khuday da aman rawalie 💚
@Ali Mamund Yes. They were defeated after many victories earlier as well. However, their priority changed to conquer the rest of Central Asia, the middle east and Europe afterwards, which they were successful in doing. Almost all empires were never interested in keeping their hold on Afghanistan for long once they were inside because of way too many mountains and lack of natural resources. It was simply not worth it for anyone to keep occupying and ruling it. Except for in the modern time for USA & India (to destabilise both Afghanistan & Pakistan), for Pakistan (to try to keep both Pakistan & Afghanistan stable due to other countries' presence) for Russia (to counter the influence of USA), for Saudi Arabia & Iran (to spread their religious ideologies i.e. Sunni vs Shia).
I served over seas in Afghanistan, and I can attest to the beauty and splendor of Afghanistan. The people, the rich history and the amazing terrain! My wish in life is to be able to go back 50 years from now and see it prosper like South Korea did in just a short time.
Fascinating stuff. Interesting and well put together. I’m also really glad you cover eastern history. As a westerner I’ve found concise but accurate content is kind of hard to find.
If you think a UA-cam vid made by a westerner is precise and accurate then you are an idiot ! You wanna know about afganistan, you should ask an afganistan person !
I absolutely adore comments sections like these. It really shows how beautiful the world is and the kindness that is rooted in our human nature. Love to Afghanistan, from the UK.
Exceptional history...They outlasted all of their enemies even the mighty U.S OF A.May they come to know the PEACE OF JEHOVAH GOD...the peace that passes all human UNDERSTANDING.AMEN.
In The Indian Epic Mahabharata, One of the Most Important characters known as 'Shakuni', was from Kingdom of Gandhar, which is today known as Afghanistan.
PS I went to the US embassy recently with my luggage because I was homeless and needed help, and was told the embassy could help me. The security guards were nervous at the sight of my luggage. The embassy didn't help me. No surprise. If the US cared about its people, it would outlaw Frankenfood for starters.
I agree also with the other 2 comments genatations of hate and look what it has done to that country and people basicly killing off there own people the leders of that country have put all of them in a hole and noone has the brain or heart to let love and respeckt overcome its hate in a hole and with those mentalitys will never get out of it and teaching there young to hate also what hope is there for that land and people.how sad..Im proud and blessed to be an American 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 were we love and care for our people but will also fight for our rights as humans
Very good explanation of history which many of Afghanis itself do not know.. This is detailed history covering the whole region. Amazing to see how the borders keep on changing after every sultanate..
@@santallum MY FRIEND YOU'RE THE VICTIM OF STERIOTYPING, BECAUSE IF I THINK LIKE YOU THEN, JAPAN REMINDS ME OF KAMAKAZI ATTACKS, USA AND UK OF ENSLAVING OTHER POOR COUNTIRES AND ITALY OF SURRENDERING :,D
Fascinating summary of the history. What I found most useful was the superimposition of the different empires with various colours on the map, showing the extent of their reign and the timeframes. It was way too much for me to absorb but I will probably watch it quite few times as a reference for understanding the history of the country and the region. Really well done - thank you.
Very interesting and informative refresher. I heard an Afghan say: “The west has the watches but Afghanistan has the time”. They know where their strengths resides
It would be great if we could send archaeologists instead of troops to find out more about the ancient history of the region. Things will have to calm down a lot for that to happen though.
@@justsomeguy335 I didn't suggest that, but now that you mention it, look what ISIS did to archaeological sites in Iraq. Look what the Taliban did to the Buddhas of Bamiyan. Look what the people did to the National Museum of Afghanistan. Look what China did during the great leap forward, to erase their own historical past. Look what the Soviets did with their anti-religious policies, destroying mosques and other cultural heritage wherever they set foot. Sometimes the safest place is far away from conflict zones. So if you call preserving archaeological artifacts stealing, then yes.
hossin maddoh ghool, I wouldn't expect you to say such things to a "terrorist" Pashtun's face. As always you ghools can bark safely from behind your computer screens.
Afghanistan was once part of Indian subcontinent . Afganistan (afga) name itself came from its Sanskrit name Aswha Desham ( country of horses). Later it became afgha because Persians can not pronounce ashwa . There was a mention of this in Ramayana . Kaikeyi,Wife of Dasharadha and the mother of Bharat is the princess of ashwa desa ( because this tribe is popular for breeding good quality war horses ) . Kandahar , which also from Sanskrit name Gaadhara so it became Kandahar. This is from Mahabharata .
Joe this reminds me of the news reports in the opening months of war after 9/11. Some reporter was in the face of these rough northern alliance fighters in the mountains. The reporter asked repeatedly how the fight against al qaeda goes and the fighter's eyes just kept shifting back and fourth and another fighter in the back says in Farsi "eee al qaeda bay-padar qeest? " (who is this al qaeda bastard).
@@MahasvinGogiclue is that every expansionist kingdom aur country has fallen. Either ussr,usa,britain,german,and many kingdom, next will be china. China is claiming every neighbour's territory this is the start of decline of china.

@@Thevlogger0009 the US was already there for 20 years and helped them as much as we could. The biggest slap on the face was the Afghans laying down arms and letting themselves be conquered without a fight. Pathetic and cowardly. Our men won’t die for people who won’t defend their own land anymore.
@@Thevlogger0009 Why not, its not our job to wipe your ass, sort your own shit, if you as a country would drop that primitive archaic religion and be more open to westerner technology, would be different, but you chose Islam, now deal with it.

So many different Empires, Afghanistan has many Cultures! Wish them Freedom,Peace, Happiness and Justice! Thanks for the Summary of the Country!God Bless for the beautiful Video and the people!🙏❤️😯❤️👍
The region of Afghanistan was once called Gandhara with Taxila as its capital. Taxila was an education hub in ancient times and had one of the earliest Universities in the world. The mother of Kauravas in the Ancient Indian epic Mahabharata was from this region.
@@amolkhobaragade hahaha, nice to see you have read some of our Mahabaratha records... However, I have to tell you, the Mahabharata is not the only Indian historical reference, there are several other Hindu scriptures along with modern linguistic and archeological studies which extend the Indosphere to much beyond Afghanistan in the West. That's what I was referring to. Of course Gandhara is mentioned, because it is alive in the generic vocabulary of people since the name (and similar ones) got highlighted in recent news.
@@amolkhobaragade It's more than that. The problem is since the Arabs and other invaders came thru, they did their best to destroy and erase anything related to Hinduism and Buddhism
@@amolkhobaragade Gandahara was from Peshawar basin up to Kabul Valley, which is South-East of Afghanistan. After Khaybar pass to the north was called Bactria, which is North-East Afghanistan.
I feel the Cain killed Able in this region, therefore the war never ends in Afghanistan 🇦🇫 (my country) - I really wish prosperity and amnesty to my people and country, thanks to all who wished best for us.
@Dharmic Yoddha hindus literally stood under foreign islamic and christian rule for 1200 years. hindus gave british officers their women for free as prostitutes. so what are you talking about? 20 000 mughal ruled over 70 million hindus in the 17th century. what "warriorism" are you hindus talking about?
What I found most interesting is how many different "conquerors" have taken over Afghanistan and how many different peoples have made up Afghanistan throughout its history. Thank you.
@@AK-dd9od Alexander was never defeated. He pushed into India and only needed to go back because his troops were deeply angry about how much was there was. The only reason Alexander's empire collapsed was because of his untimely death.
The Afghan war broke Alexander's army. As a result, his demoralized troops mutinied at the Beas river in Northern India, a short distance from Afghanistan.
Afghans , you are so beautiful even the country is full of mountains and clear water . You are in my prayers 🙏. Let peace come from our Almighty God who is in control, all Christians remember you in their personal prayer.
@Dharmic Yoddha islam in Afghanistan was from 7th century The Afghanistanis were very powerful till 1950s They have ruled many neighboring countries Including India...
@Dharmic Yoddha Who was Mehmood ghazni? the person who literally fucked all indian rulers of his time...who was muhammad ghori....who Were Mughals They all Came From Afghanistan or their Capital was Kabul..
Thanks I live here in Kabul The Taliban are not bad they are a little extremist about women rights nothing else and they I think will build this country and there is no terrorism here as western people think as the americans have left! Thank u for ur love .😩
@@safiullahshah4848 I hope the Taliban does bring a form of peace and security to Afghanistan and NOT at the expense of it’s women and children!! The very humans who bring life to this world. The very people who can nurture a culture. They need to recognize the value of their women and children. Children they can TEACH to do the right thing and in the right way for centuries to come.❤️ YOU!!!
@@safiullahshah4848 We Sri Lankans are also praying for our Afghanistani brothers and sisters! Wishing your country a peaceful and prosperous future! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
My prediction…the Taliban stays as rulers for a few years then begins to kill people and double crosses a stronger country and gets removed from power as quickly as it got there. Then retreats to the mountains and Pakistan to wage war for another 10-20 years until the whole process begins again. There are too many cultures and religions that have rules over this area for everyone to simply accept the other ruling party. These are people that have lived through thousands of generations of war. I wish them peace and prosperity but sadly history cannot be ignored.
They’ll go after China because of all the Muslims they put in concentration camps. CCP is concerned about that. They could wipe out the taliban because they’re not afraid to use their full might, but they also don’t want to use it because then it’s just one more reason for the international community to use against them.
Great upload. As an afghan it’s difficult finding info about the history. The Greco history was interesting as it explains the Athena dance we today perform at all weddings
I’m not afghan and for some reason I still imagine the place as being mostly desert with sandstone houses and bombers everywhere...... kinda racist but mayb I’m just ignorant, what is it like over there?

UK is busy killing Afghans since 1839 in their quest to colonize Afghans like it did to India but since they were buthurt 3 times in a row it continues until 2021 with destroying Afghanistan trough its proxy state west Pakistan which it created illegally on Afghan-Indian soil in 1947 against all UN agreements, despite the fact it was defeated in the 3rd Afghan-Anglo war in 1919 not just only defeated on the field but also diplomatically in 1923 because the last real Afghan king Amanullah Khan signed a pact with USSR and thus freeing Durandline which his illiterate father was tricked by the British in 1889 “leasing” this land for 100 years!
That’s why Afghanistan had to be destroyed in 1989 and they continu to destabilize and create havoc in Afghanistan abusing Islam since WW1
By means of carefully orchestrated Islamic uprise in 1929 it ousted king Amanullah khan by the own Afghan population and placed its puppet king which ruled for 40 years while being toppled by its own emotional idiot nephew the red prince Daud.
Similar to 1979 Islamic uprise orchestrated by USA which is Britain’s partner since WW1 and very recently both had invaded Afghanistan under false pretext called 9/11 it also cultivated Taliban during their 20 years of occupation and puppet presidents karzai and ghani
Sadly a repeat of 1929
1929 = 1979
Deluded “freedom fighters payed by the west: Bache Saqow = Ahmad Shah Massoud and other ashrar
Western puppet king shah shuja & Nadir Shah = Karzai/Ghani/Taliban (Pakistan ISI)
Patriots Afghans: Real Afghan King Amanullah Khan = President Dr. Najibullah
While president Najibullah warned in 1989 the western world to stop supporting terrorism in Afghanistan. However geopolitics has no moral standards and is payed by Afghan blood
In a certain way, the world is witnessing the revenge of afghans call it karma or whatever you want but Alexander the Great wrote:
"May God keep you away from the venom of the Cobra, the teeth of the tiger, and the revenge of the Afghans."
If Afghanistan were not so embroiled in war, it would probably be one of the best archaeological sites on the planet.
Yup...I am sure there are many interesting things buried there

Hey, trust me you don’t want to talk about religion.
Quran (60:8) : Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.
Believe me it is the most peaceful religion. Tell me if you have any better religion.

The war started extactly in the year that I was born. Now I am 42. I have never seen a peaceful Afghanistan.
Afghanistan is truly a land of never ending wars. The roots of these wars are in the culture, in the history, in the mindsets, in the thinkings and in the soroudings. The roots are too deep and too old.
Well and its so sad because it's usually with the interference of other countries.
Afghan tribes will make war when foreign forces can’t.

Raees Zargar you are absolutely correct in saying that Nepal just a poor country with no importance. Know that the best fighters that Afghanistan has, were bested by a bunch of poor Nepalese Gurkhas. Let that sink in. Gurkhas are the most superior fighting soldier that I have ever seen.
On a side note; Afghanistan is pretty much worthless. “If” Afghanistan took advantage of it’s mineral deposits, then that would be different, but they don’t, and they likely never will. Especially since the Taliban are likely to take over in say the next year or two.
Folks in Kabul had better get ready because that Olympic Soccer field is about to be used again to start lobbing off heads. Bet the Afghans wouldn’t mind some help from the Gurkhas then.
Deaths gamer well bud; if you put down your controller and left your parents basement, you’d realize that there had been 2 wars in the last 19 years. Some of us actually fought in them, and didn’t have to get all of our experience an Xbox PlayStation.
Himalayan midgets are nothing compared to Afghans, and those Ghurkas were always slaves to the British, and besides, what Afghan pissed you off Bobby?

Recently met a group of Afghanis who fled due to the crisis of the Taliban taking control. They are such friendly, hardworking people. I was astounded by how ‘Western’ they are, Amazing at speaking English, and just so grateful to be in a safe country. The media always paints a negative picture of Afghanistan. I had a lovely conversation with a man named Gull who was a tour guide and lost everything due to the conflict. He told me he would take me on a great tour once the country becomes safe again, and I really wish it does. They are a resilient people and don’t deserve to always get the shit end of the stick. Long live Afghanistan!
I would love to visit there to one day...Hopefully Afghanistan becomes a peaceful prosperous place in our lifetimes. They deserve much better.
There are the Persian speaking and the hazaras, who are polite and friendly, Pashtun are not.

It was a very good video and well documented. You have just missed the Durand line. Modern state of Afghanistan was neighboring British India but after creation of Pakistan in 1947 half of Afghanistan was given to Pakistan by British India and till now no Afghan government has accepted the Durand line as an international border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The line actually separated the Pashtun people who always willing to rejoin.

What for? 20 years of USA trying to conquer it. Not even worth mentioning it in the big picture of 3500 years of war. :-)
What Alexander said - just another name on the 'empires who took us over and have since been driven out' list. :P
During the Mahabharata, Gandhari cursed her brother Shakuni, The ruler of Gandhara, that his Kingdom shall always suffer as her sons did in the War before dying. Gandhara was the ancient name of Afghanistan and Gandhari was an Afghan Princess. Looking at Afghanistan's history with Empires falling and rising every 50 years and most of them foreign, gives me chills.
Completely wrong lol. As an Afghan, it would be nice for others to stop claiming afghan history as Persian, Arab or Indian. Recently Indians have been relentless at claiming afghan history through a distant more than 2000 yrs old history where a small region was once ruled by an "Indian kingdom." Gandhara is mostly present day Pakistan and included small parts of southern Afghanistan. We were bactrian and in ancient times Afghanistan was called "Ariana" because we had Aryan tribes.

If you condense that much history down to 14 minutes only focusing on transfers of power and territorial shifts you can make most long standing places look like they are in constant chaos. A human lifetime to generations of stability often exist between two bullet points in a history book.

Yes. True. Unless you're the mongols.
@Ali Mamund Yes. They were defeated after many victories earlier as well. However, their priority changed to conquer the rest of Central Asia, the middle east and Europe afterwards, which they were successful in doing. Almost all empires were never interested in keeping their hold on Afghanistan for long once they were inside because of way too many mountains and lack of natural resources. It was simply not worth it for anyone to keep occupying and ruling it. Except for in the modern time for USA & India (to destabilise both Afghanistan & Pakistan), for Pakistan (to try to keep both Pakistan & Afghanistan stable due to other countries' presence) for Russia (to counter the influence of USA), for Saudi Arabia & Iran (to spread their religious ideologies i.e. Sunni vs Shia).

Afghanistan was once part of Indian subcontinent . Afganistan (afga) name itself came from its Sanskrit name Aswha Desham ( country of horses). Later it became afgha because Persians can not pronounce ashwa . There was a mention of this in Ramayana . Kaikeyi,Wife of Dasharadha and the mother of Bharat is the princess of ashwa desa ( because this tribe is popular for breeding good quality war horses ) .
Kandahar , which also from Sanskrit name Gaadhara so it became Kandahar. This is from Mahabharata .

Afghanistan Was Is and will remain a symbol of brave patriotic cultural and learned Wise people.
zenrahim well known for terrorists
@Dharmic Yoddha hindus literally stood under foreign islamic and christian rule for 1200 years. hindus gave british officers their women for free as prostitutes. so what are you talking about? 20 000 mughal ruled over 70 million hindus in the 17th century. what "warriorism" are you hindus talking about?
Dharmic Yoddha lol
Afghans ruled India for centuries even before Islam . And our population was more than 30 times smaller than your at that time.
@@kantrivalli7859 Those terrorists were created by Pakistan. And that is a fact even Pakistan admit...
@@idresshinwari4763 afghan got identity in 18th century before they are vassal of Persian and Turk...
Thank you for your compilation of Afghanistan's Regional history that identifies the massive shifts of power in the Region

Afghanistan: Hold my Green Tea.
Green tea, so true brotha
yes ''grave yard of empire '' is myth afghanistan is conquered more than any country in the region in history.
Its acctually KAAVA.
Smae thing turkish drink
Koko logix 😂😂😂😂 where is my smawat and chinak
@@MT-wp9su not ruled till this day my friend unlike Pakistan which was ruled by British empire so I guess you need to rectify your information.
What I found most interesting is how many different "conquerors" have taken over Afghanistan and how many different peoples have made up Afghanistan throughout its history. Thank you.
Bitch we've never been conquered rephrase your statement to how many conquerors have "visited" Afghanistan.
Now I know why Afghanistan is called the graveyard of the empires
Alexander was on a roll prior to the Afghan war. Things went downhill for him very quickly once that started. "Graveyard of Empires" indeed.
@@AK-dd9od Alexander was never defeated. He pushed into India and only needed to go back because his troops were deeply angry about how much was there was. The only reason Alexander's empire collapsed was because of his untimely death.
The Afghan war broke Alexander's army. As a result, his demoralized troops mutinied at the Beas river in Northern India, a short distance from Afghanistan.
In his letters to his mom, Alexander described how formidable the Afghans are.
@@AK-dd9od his army was afraid of powerful mauryan empire that's why they rebel against him
If this history lesson was made a TV series...the Game of Thrones would have died out in the 1st season itself!!!....
Really interesting stuff mate. Great work.
Afghans , you are so beautiful even the country is full of mountains and clear water . You are in my prayers 🙏. Let peace come from our Almighty God who is in control, all Christians remember you in their personal prayer.
Afghanistan really is a great country
But outsiders have made it hell
@Dharmic Yoddha islam in Afghanistan was from 7th century
The Afghanistanis were very powerful till 1950s
They have ruled many neighboring countries Including India...
True. The fall was terrible after the Soviets invaded
@Dharmic Yoddha Who was Mehmood ghazni?
the person who literally fucked all indian rulers of his time...who was muhammad ghori....who Were Mughals
They all Came From Afghanistan or their Capital was Kabul..
Dharmic Yoddha Damn, you are stupid. You think you are smart, yet you have an IQ below room temperature.
@@badfoody It was the Soviets propping up Communism which caused it. That instability let the Islamists rise.
What I found interesting about Afghanistan is the graveyard of their enemies
I pray for the beautiful people of Afghanistan. My heart wheeps for you. I wish you peace, prosperity and love. Love from the Netherlands. 🌹
Thanks I live here in Kabul
The Taliban are not bad they are a little extremist about women rights nothing else and they I think will build this country and there is no terrorism here as western people think as the americans have left!
Thank u for ur love
.😩
@@safiullahshah4848 I hope the Taliban does bring a form of peace and security to Afghanistan and NOT at the expense of it’s women and children!! The very humans who bring life to this world. The very people who can nurture a culture. They need to recognize the value of their women and children. Children they can TEACH to do the right thing and in the right way for centuries to come.❤️ YOU!!!
@@davidgardner262 inshallah they wil and if the Europeans recognize them it will be very gud for us and our development
Thank you 🇦🇫
@@safiullahshah4848 We Sri Lankans are also praying for our Afghanistani brothers and sisters! Wishing your country a peaceful and prosperous future! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
That's why it's called "The Graveyard of many Empires".

My prediction…the Taliban stays as rulers for a few years then begins to kill people and double crosses a stronger country and gets removed from power as quickly as it got there. Then retreats to the mountains and Pakistan to wage war for another 10-20 years until the whole process begins again. There are too many cultures and religions that have rules over this area for everyone to simply accept the other ruling party. These are people that have lived through thousands of generations of war. I wish them peace and prosperity but sadly history cannot be ignored.
I think the Chinese will interfere and will actually win.
@@shalevedna the way Taliban fight, isnt the way the super powers fight wars. I see china failing, as the do with most products they make.
What does 9/11 mean to the people who live in Afghanistan and the Americans troops fighting there? ua-cam.com/video/hy-M40oHZgQ/v-deo.html
@@shalevedna no, Chinese only wants to do business if safety is guaranteed. If not, stay away.
They’ll go after China because of all the Muslims they put in concentration camps. CCP is concerned about that. They could wipe out the taliban because they’re not afraid to use their full might, but they also don’t want to use it because then it’s just one more reason for the international community to use against them.
I pray for stability and peace. They’ve been through never ending conflict for too long.
if pray could work, Afghanistan would have been the best country in the world. my dear friend, lets be practical and forget about pray and prayers.
Excellent. I was unaware of just how many invasions and wars took place from ancient history
Afghanistan is a great nation
Love and greetings from Iran
Thx

Great upload. As an afghan it’s difficult finding info about the history. The Greco history was interesting as it explains the Athena dance we today perform at all weddings
That's a lie, history is kinda known there
