Abstract
The paper attempts to explain Afghanistan history and
throws light on the Afghanistan geo physical location. Defines
Afghanistan as a land of stark and rugged beauty of snow-covered
mountains, barren desserts and rolling steppe lands. Situated at the
eastern end of Iranian plateau. It covers some 250,000 square meters.
Several mountains are among the highest in the world. Afghanistan is a
land locked country, with frontiers that were mostly demarcated towards
the end of the nineteenth century. To the north its borders with the
Republic of Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and to Turkmenistan run for some
thirteen miles, westwards from the Pamir, along the Amu Darya and then
across country to the Hari Rud, the river that marks the northern end of
its frontier with Iran. In the northeast is a border with China which run the
so called Durand Line, the frontier that divides the Afghanistan from the
Pakistan. The Afghan Iranian borders runs north wards, until it meets the
Hari Rud. The paper also explains the origin of the people who inhibit in
this high country and diverse, as they are often obscure. Although there
has been much intermingling over the centuries, they still have
disturbed ethnic, physical and linguistic differences. Recent estimates
suggest Afghanistan population as twenty million divided into twenty or
so many ethnic groups. However these groups have got divided
themselves into clans and tribes numbering in thousands. Each tribe is
based on patrilineality and often is localized to various degrees.
However, there are certain tribes that remain scattered or are folk; bound
living in different areas of Afghanistan
