Afghanistan has long been a country overwhelmed by tribal rivalries, colonial wars, and geo-political conflict. The Afghans have called their mountains βthe land of rebellion,β a land that has not been successfully occupied since the times of Alexander the Great. These invaders β Persians, Arabs, Moguls, Sikhs, British, Russians β may have been thwarted, but wandering through the bazaars of Kabul will attest to their legacy. In the people of Afghanistan, the genes of countless races meet and intermingle.
