entral government.[76] Etymology From a more limited, ethnological point of view, "AfḡhÄn" is the term by which the Persian-speakers of Afghanistan (and the non-PashtÅ-speaking ethnic groups generally) designate the PashtÅ«n. The equation Afghans = PashtÅ«n has been propagated all the more, both in and beyond Afghanistan, because the PashtÅ«n tribal confederation has maintained its hegemony in the country, numerically and politically.[77] National Identity Afghanistan's early efforts to create a sort of national identity began in 1919, after receiving its independence from the British Empire.[78] This was the time when Afghanistan completely regain control over its sovereignty. Especially, the Hazara people who are still considered second-class citizens.[79][80][81] After the fall of monarchy in 1973,[82] Mohammed Daoud Khan, a staunch partisan of Pashtunistan,[83] who saw the country not as Afghanistan but a Pashtunistan, a land uniting Pashtuns from NWFP and FATA with Afghanistan.[84][85][86] Despite implementing some social and educational progress,[87][88] he failed to create a national identity.[89] After the Saur Revolution, the central governments tried to advocate for a broader Afghan identity through the use of modern education, but their efforts met with limited success.[90] One of the most common hurdles for fostering a common national identity was the fact they ethnic groups such as Hazara, Uzbeks, or Tajiks could not identify with elements of an identity that had strong base in Pashtun ethnicity that ruled the country.[91][92][93] Other identifiers: Afghani and Afghanese The term Afghani refers to the unit of Afghan currency. The term is also often used in the English language (and appears in some dictionaries) for a person or thing related to Afghanistan, although some have expressed the opinion that this usage is incorrect.[94] A reason for this usage can be because the term "Afghani" (Ø§ÙØºØ§ÙÛ) is in fact a valid demonym for Afghans in the overall Persian language and in Hindustani, whereas "Afghan" is derived from Pashto. Thus "Afghan" is the anglicized term of "Afghani" when translating from Dari or Hindi-Urdu, but not Pashto.[95] Another variant is Afghanese, which has been seldom used in place of Afghan.[96][97][98] Ethnicities Ethnolinguistic groups in Afghanistan and its surroundings (1982) Main article: Ethnic groups in Afghanistan Afghans come from various ethnic backgrounds. Pashtuns form a plurality of the population, while Tajiks, Hazaras and Uzbeks are the next largest and altogether the four form almost 95% of the population. They are of diverse origins including of Iranian, Turkic and Mongol ethnolinguistic roots.[99] Religions Main article: Religion in Afghanistan The Masjid-e-Kabud, popularly known as the Blue Mosque, in Mazar-i-Sharif, Balkh Province, Afghanistan, April 3, 2012 The Afghan people of all ethnicities are predominantly and traditionally followers of Islam, of whom most are of the Sunni branch. Other religious minorities include the Afghan Hindus, Afghan Sikhs, Afghan Jews and Afghan Christians.[100] Culture Main article: Culture of Afghanistan Afghan culture has existed for over three millennia, dating back to the time of the Achaemenid Empire in 500 BCE. Afghans have both common cultural features and those that differ between regions with each of the 34 provinces having its own unique distinctive cultures partly as a result of geographic obstacles that divide the country. Afghanistan's culture is histo handful, mostly United States Army Air Service aviators, were decorated three or more times.
