Afghan Kings
Before the 1600s and prior, the Afghans that lived in cities were subject to live under foreign rulers. Those who refused were forced to live nomadic style in isolated mountain regions where the law of a central government did not reach to them. The Afghans were pushing for the establishment of their own state but many attempts have failed. In early 1700s Afghan leaders or tribal chiefs from Kandahar began to organize themselves and for the first time they freed themselves from foreign rule. In 1709, Mir Wais Hotaki built a large fortress for himself and turned the town of Kandahar to the center of the Hotaki Empire. After a long series of wars, this empire was eventually replaced by the Durrani Empire which was founded by Ahmad Shah Durrani in 1747. The modern nation of Afghanistan is what's left over of the Durrani Empire.

Paley Khan(1986)British Tyranny in Afghanistan!
The British, circa their rule in Asia, have been asked to crush all opposition in the region and have been promised all the men and fire-power necessary. One of the strongest opposition to their rule is a Pathan by the name of Palay Khan, who is seemingly indestructible, and has been responsible for countless British casualties. All plans to capture him have proved to be futile. Then one day, the British do succeed in capturing his close friend, Amar Singh, hold him captive, torture him so that he can reveal Palay's hideout. But Amar Singh refuses to do so, and in retaliation, Palay and his men abduct the daughter, Helen, of British General Bonz and decide to hold her captive until her father arranges the release of Amar Singh. Watch what transpires when Palay and Helen fall in love with each other, and must deal with strong opposition on both Palay's and General Bonz's sides - with Amar Singh's life hanging in the balance. Afghanistan is a crossroads between the East and the West, and was an ancient focal point of the Silk Road and migration. It has an important geostrategic location, connecting South and Central Asia and Middle East. Because of this, the land has been a target of various invaders and conquerors, as well as a source from which local powers invaded surrounding regions to form their own empires. Ahmad Shah Durrani created the Durrani Empire in 1747, which is considered the beginning of modern Afghanistan.[10] Subsequently, the capital was shifted to Kabul ...

Afghanistan - Kandahar
Kandahār or Qandahār (Pashto/Persian: کندهار or قندهار) is the second largest city in Afghanistan. Many empires have long fought over the city, due to its strategic location along the trade routes of Southern and Central Asia. In 1748, Ahmad Shah Durrani, founder of the Durrani Empire, made Kandahar the capital of Afghanistan. The tomb of Ahmad Shah Durrani is located in the city center, which also houses Durrani's brass helmet and other personal items. In front of Durrani's mausoleums is the Mosque of the Cloak of the Prophet Mohammed, containing one of the most valued relics in the Islamic world, which was given by the Emir of Bokhara to Ahmad Shah Durrani.

Join us on Facebook: www.facebook.com Our webiste: www.afghans.eu Ahmad Shāh Durrānī (c.1722--1773) (Pashto شاه درانی), also known as Ahmad Shāh Abdālī (Pashto/Persian:احمد شاه ابدالي) and born as Ahmad Khān Abdālī, was the founder of the Durrani Empire and is regarded by many to be the founder of modern Afghanistan.[8][3] After the assassination of Nader Shah Afshar, he became the Amir of Khorasan[9][10] and later became the founder and ruler of his own Empire. Rallying Pashtun tribes and allies, he pushed southeast towards the Punjab in Mughal India, north towards the weakening Khanate of Bukhara, and west towards the disintegrating Afsharid Empire. The Pashtuns of Afghanistan often refer to him as Ahmad Shah Bābā (Ahmad Shah the "father").[11][12] For more information please visit the following website: en.wikipedia.org www.sikhiwiki.org afghanland.com

Afghanistan au Pashtunistan
Pashtuns (Pashto: پښتون Paṣtūn, Paxtūn, also rendered as Pushtuns, Pakhtuns, Pukhtuns), also called Pathans[11] (Urdu: پٹھان, Hindi: पठान Paṭhān), ethnic Afghans,[12] are an Eastern Iranian ethno-linguistic group with populations primarily in Afghanistan and in the North-West Frontier Province, Federally Administered Tribal Areas and Balochistan provinces of western Pakistan. The Pashtuns are typically characterized by their usage of the Pashto language and practice of Pashtunwali, which is a traditional code of conduct and honor.[13] Pashtun society consists of many tribes and clans which were rarely politically united,[14] until the rise of the Durrani Empire in 1747.[3] Pashtuns played a vital role during the Great Game as they were caught between the imperialist designs of the British and Russian empires. For over 250 years, they reigned as the dominant ethnic group in Afghanistan. More recently, the Pashtuns gained worldwide attention after the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 and with the rise and fall of the Taliban, since they are the main ethnic contingent in the movement. Pashtuns are also an important community in Pakistan, where they are prominently represented in the military and are the second-largest ethnic group.[15] The Pashtuns are the world's largest (patriarchal) segmentary lineage ethnic group.[16] The total population of the group is estimated to be around 42 million, but an accurate count remains elusive due to the lack of an official ...

DOCUMENTRY ON PAKISTAN.Documentary films constitute a broad category of nonfictional motion pictures intended to document some aspect of reality, primarily for the purposes of instruction or maintaining a historical record.[1] A 'documentary film' was originally shot on film stock—the only medium available—but now includes video and digital productions that can be either direct-to-video, made as a television program or released for screening in cinemas. "Documentary" has been described as a "filmmaking practice, a cinematic tradition, and mode of audience reception" that is continually evolving and is without clear boundaries.Pakistan (Listeni/ˈpækɨstæn/ or Listeni/pɑːkiˈstɑːn/; Urdu: پاكِستان) (Urdu pronunciation: [paːkɪˈst̪aːn] ( listen)), officially the Islamic Republic of Pakistan (Urdu: اسلامی جمہوریۂ پاكِستان), is a sovereign country in South Asia.

SRINAGAR (JAMMU & KASHMIR) KASHMIR VALLEY NH-1A JHELUM RIVER TRIBUTORY OF INDUS (BIKE TOUR)
Srinagar has a long history, dating back at least to the 3rd century BC, and has been known by different names. The city was founded by the King Pravarasena II over 2000 years ago, named it Parvasenpur. The city was then a part of the Maurya Empire, one of the largest empires of the Indian subcontinent. Ashoka introduced Buddhism to the Kashmir valley, and the adjoining regions around the city became a centre of Buddhism. In the 1st century, the region was under the control of Kushans and several rulers of this dynasty strengthened the Buddhist tradition. Vikramaditya (of Ujjain) and his successors probably ruled the regions just before the city fell to the control of the Huns in the 6th century, and Mihirkula was the most dreaded ruler of the city and the valley. Srinagar became the capital of Kashmir around 960 CE. Some of the notable independent rulers were Lalit Aditya, Avantiverman and Sangrama Deva. The independent Hindu and the Buddhist rule of Srinagar lasted until the 14th century when the Kashmir valley, including the city, came under the control of the several Muslim rulers, including the Mughals. It was also the capital during the reign of Yusuf Shah Chak, an Independent Kashmiri ruler who was tricked by Akbar when Akbar failed to conquer Kashmir by force. Yusuf Shah Chak remains buried in Bihar in India. Akbar established Mughal rule in Srinagar and Kashmir valley. With the disintegration of the Mughal empire after the death of Aurangzeb in 1707 ...

Kashmir (Balti: کشمیر; Poonchi/Chibhali: کشمیر; Dogri: कश्मीर; Kashmiri: कॅशीर, کٔشِیر; Shina: کشمیر; Uyghur: كھسىمڭر) is the northwestern region of the Indian subcontinent. Until the mid-19th century, the term "Kashmir" referred only to the valley lying between the Great Himalayas and the Pir Panjal range; since then, it has been used for a larger area that today includes the Indian-administered state of Jammu and Kashmir consisting of the Kashmir valley, Jammu and Ladakh; the Pakistani-administered provinces of the Northern Areas and Azad Kashmir, and the Chinese-administered region of Aksai Chin. In the first half of the first millennium, Kashmir became an important centre of Hinduism and later of Buddhism; later still, in the ninth century, Kashmir Shaivism arose in the region. In 1349, Shah Mirza became the first Muslim ruler of Kashmir and inaugurated the line Salatin-i-Kashmir. For the next five centuries Kashmir had Muslim monarchs, including the Mughals, who ruled until 1751, and thereafter, the Afghan Durranis, who ruled until 1820. That year, the Sikhs under Ranjit Singh, annexed Kashmir. In 1846, upon the purchase of the region from the British under the Treaty of Amritsar, the Dogras—under Gulab Singh—became the new rulers. Dogra Rule, under the paramountcy (or tutelage) of the British Crown, lasted until 1947, when the former princely state became a disputed territory, now administered by three countries: India, Pakistan, and the People's Republic ...

New Airport Herat Feb 2012 Afghanistan
Youtube.com/Galanawi .................................................................................. Herat International Airport[1] (IATA: HEA, ICAO: OAHR) is located 6.5 miles (10.5 km) southeast of the city of Herat in western Afghanistan, east of the Herat-Farah road, close to Guzara in the Guzara District of the Herat Province. It is believed to be the third largest after Afghanistan's Kabul International Airport, and Kandahar International Airport . The airport was originally built by engineers from the United States in the late 1950s. During the 1980s Soviet war, it was heavily used by the Soviets to launch bombardment missions on Mujahideen rebel forces. During the late 2001 Operation Enduring Freedom, it was bombed by US-British planes. Prior to the arrival of NATO's forces, the airport was a military base for fighters and transport aircraft (likely Antonov An-26, Antonov An-32 and Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21). It has been used by the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in the last decade as well as by the military of Afghanistan and the Afghan National Police. In recent years the runway was extended and newly paved. A new international terminal was added in 2011 and the airport became known as Herat International Airport in early 2012 in which direct flight service will begin between Herat and Iran, Pakistan, Dubai, Tajikistan and other destinations. The new terminal was funded by Italy and named after Captain Massimo Ranzani, a fallen Italian officer ...
