Dawn of the Afghan Empire (Graveyard of Empires, Part 1)

Support CaspianReport

BAKU - Everything has an end, and everything comes to an end, even death itself. So go the rhymes of Afghan history, for the year is 1747 and the mighty Iranian empire of Nader Afshar came to an abrupt end with his assassination. His untimely departure carried with him a premonition of death and set in motion a series of events that would become the epic drama that is the history of Afghanistan.

Afghanistan: A place where emperors go to learn humility.

I was one of very few U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan that realized we were walking around in and fighting in the midst of thousands of years of history.

[arthurvandaley]

السلام علیکم (Peace be upon you) !! I' from Kandahar Afghanistan. my home is just in front of Ahmad Shah Durani shrine. Thanks for lovely video about my افغانستان. Every human and geography has their own glorious story. We are human & we respect each other.

[TheAfghan]

I just pray to God for a peaceful Afghanistan just once in my life time. A depressing Afghanistan is enough for us.

[timlewis]

Afghanistan I turn to you for inspiration, you give me strength to fight back against Tyranny and injustice, your bravery and heroism is something to be admired I stand in support of all the Afghan people and I pray for well being and happiness.

Ahmad Shah Duranni was a very interesting man. His poems are a work of beauty.

“By blood, we are immersed in love of you.
The youth lose their heads for your sake.
I come to you and my heart finds rest.
Away from you, grief clings to my heart like a snake.
I forget the throne of Delhi
when I remember the mountain tops of my Afghan land.
If I must choose between the world and you,
I shall not hesitate to claim your barren deserts as my own.”

By the way this history is very close to my heart as I was born literally hundred to 150 yards from his tomb in Kandahar in my grandfathers house . And I am also a Durrani from the same tribe .

[drudown]

Man ever since finding this channel 2 weeks ago, my own giant life suddenly seems so small!!! Thank you for that... I cant stop watching these videos, they are awesome

[anona]

Thank you Shirvan brother, a great retelling of the legendary story of the rise of modern Afghanistan.

[Dragons_Armory]

Afghan are so fiercely protective of their domains they are that way to other Afghans. So other powers might as well give up
Also the history of the Durrani Empire is rad

[alitahir]

When God intends to punish a nation for their arrogance, he sends them to Afghanistan.

[bigcranium]

Here after Afghanistan has defeated another empire: America.

[ansaipaoloricciardi]

Afghanistan is a very diverse country. The history dates back a while and I personally find Afghanistan culture and history interesting.

I hope the war will end soon so I can visit 😅

[yasharmodaber]

As half Azeri and half Afghan this video completes me even more

[konstantinoskotsomytis]

Wow this Afghan empire sounds pretty neat! I'sure it will last for generations!

[Claxiux]

thank you so much for saying Iranian Empire rather than the greek and misleading use of "Persian Empire". You are truly the best!
