Afghanistan – graveyard of imperialism
This title "graveyard of imperialism" was only coined after the defeat of the East India Company in Afghanistan which is only recent history. It is false. The area known today as Afghanistan was practically razed destroyed by Sultan Taimur and before him Ghenghis Khan. The inhabitants along with even cats & dogs were killed and whole cities vanished. If the people of this area are so tough why were they completely manhandled by these two superpowers? It became a graveyard for its own inhabitants not for these superpowers of the day. There is nothing special about Aghanistan...it is just a deserted mountanous tribal society...sort of like bigger version of our tribal areas...
