About Afghan Pashtun People

Afghan Pashtuns comprise approximately 42% of the Afghanistan population — the largest ethnic group, concentrated in southern, southeastern, and eastern Afghanistan (Kandahar, Helmand, Zabul, Uruzgan, Ghazni, Paktika, Paktia, Khost, Logar, Wardak, Nangarhar, Kunar, Laghman, Nuristan plus parts of Farah and other provinces). Cross-border population shared with Pakistan (~37M+ Pakistani Pashtuns, separately enumerated under PK). The Pashtuns are politically and culturally dominant in Afghanistan since the establishment of the modern Afghan state under Ahmad Shah Durrani (1747) — every Afghan king and most heads-of-state through to 2021 have been Pashtun. The Pashto language is part of the Eastern Iranian branch of Indo-Iranian. Pashtun social organization is structured around Pashtunwali (the tribal honor code) with substantial tribal-confederation political organization (the Durrani / Abdali confederation associated with the Afghan royal family, the Ghilji confederation, plus the Karlani, Sarbani, Bettani, Ghurghusht confederations). The Taliban movement (Pashtu / Pashto: 'students') emerged from Pashtun religious students of the early 1990s and has dominated the Pashtun political-religious sphere through the 1996-2001 first Taliban Emirate plus the post-2021 second Taliban Emirate.
