Afghanistan: The Graveyard of Empires

[XTREME]

Assalam-O-Alaikum!

How many Empires are buried in Afghanistan?
According to my knowledge;

Alexander: The Great

‎"I am involved in the land of a 'Leonine' (lion-like) and brave people, where every foot of the ground is like a wall of steel, confronting my soldier. You have brought only one Alexander into the world, but every mother in this land has brought an Alexander in the world.”

Letter of Alexander: The Great to his mother conquering Afghanistan.

Mongol Empire
British Empire
Soviet Union
And :P ( you may better know)

JazakAllah!

Its a mistake on every empires' part who entered Afghanistan. This land does not contain people like me, it has people who have 'Ghairat' and the will to defeat anyone be it the world's superpower! Ironically most of the empires in the list were super powers of their times!
