@@zarabakhtiari6954 We Also Love Afghan May God Bless All Afghan People , it's really hard time for Afghanistan 😢😢 I got tears when I watched videos of falling people from sky , Lots Of Love And Respect From India 🇮🇳♥️🇦🇫
Technically it’s not. Geography Now covers the countries that are recognized by the UN and the UN still recognizes the old government of Afghanistan, not the Taliban
🖐Please do not misinform humanity. 🇦🇫Afghanistan has fifty-five percent Persian language, the literary name of which is Dari (Tajik, Hazara, Nuristani, Herati, Parsi Ban). About 30 percent speak Pashto and the other 15 percent are Baluch, Uzbek, and Turkmen.📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣📣
Woah, just now starting my journey with this channel (saw a video on Georgia and really liked it, starting from the beginning now) and when I looked up Zablon Simintov I saw that he was evacuated from Afghanistan in September 2021.
The great thing about the internet is that it's useful for documenting history, especially if it's happening at the moment. After seeing what has happened to Afghani, it's even more important.
AHHHH And I just realized I spelled "Political" wrong on that one transition slide. Oh well, it's too late, I already uploaded this. We can look back on it and laugh at it in episode 136.

You have no Idea how long it took to get the motion graphics finished, and I totally screwed up on one transition slide and misspelled "Political" but it's too late I already uploaded this. ENJOY EPISODE #1 of GEOGRAPHY NOW!!! Inspired by my favorite #RU-vid channels, #CGPGrey #CrashCourse Love those guys!
Mas mohmoh, salaam akhi, i love libyans, i had a very close friend who is shaheed in the current libyan war, i miss him very much, may Alla swt ease the pain of the uma and bring a lasting peace on the Ard.
Afghanistan was the second nation to recognize Turkey as a sovereign state after the USSR and it was the only country other than Turkey to mourn for a week after the death of Atatürk. We don't forget such things in Turkey. We have military personnel in Afghanistan helping build roads, hospitals, schools. We will always be there for you as your brothers. Greetings from İstanbul
But nothing gets better over there, despite the help. Because of corruption& religious fundamentalism. We should get out there. They don’t want us. Let them do their thing.
HE HASNT LEFT. He chose to stay because he’s an absolute legend. The organization offering to resettle him said he wanted money to take their offer “for his debts” and so they decided to evacuate some Afghans instead since they are about saving lives not paying off people’s debts. He also refused to move to Israel because his wife is there and he will not grant her a divorce! What a guy! Lol
Pakistanis spotted 😂😂 Feeling Jealous of Our Friendship what ever no one can Break our relation with Afghanistan ♥️ Long Live Indian♥️Afghan Friendship...
@Ahmed yea same as in islamic counties children are taught that islam is the best thing there is and other lifestyles (eg democracy) are evil. All Nothing new under the sun
This needs to be updated. You have come a long way. The contents, organization, and presentation of the newer videos are much more interesting and complete. Is it possible to update the old videos, especially Afghanistan? Thank you for your wonderful work. Love from Afghanistan
@SAIYED AL SAFA someone said he’s gonna do disputed states after like Kosovo or Taiwan or maybe US States. Or maybe he just does filler week content like explaining areas or describing cities
Here again, because of what obviously happened in Afghanistan right now. So many prayers to be sended to go to them, stay strong Afghans and Afghanistan itself! Prayers to Afghanistan

But everything changed when the Russians attacked...
Yes, the big bad Russians. We Afghans also like to blame everyone else for some of our own stupidity...like the Russians didn not invade, they were invited in. We also like to blame Pakistan, Iran, US, the Arab world, and pretty much everyone else for the problems we have created ourselves. ✌🏻
Where it all started, the beginning of something amazing.... I'm really as we are approaching the last countries and being in the "U" countries...... A series of 8 years, will end soon..... Thank you Barb for such an amazing journey into geography, this is where it all began....will Love geography now always❤️❤️❤️
I can honestly say: this is my favorite channel on all of RU-vid. I’m a flight attendant for a large US airline. I visit this channel WEEKLY as I’m traveling around the world. Gives me an incredible appreciation and small glimpse into the places I visit and the people on my flights. THANK YOU! honestly think I would fangirl if I ever saw you on one of my flights hahaha
Greetings from Azerbaijan! Afghanistan and my country have strong historical ties of friendship. And we love them very much. In recent days, we have been building closer trade ties with this country. In addition, I thank them for their support of Azerbaijan in the Karabakh issue. We love you! 🇦🇫❤🇦🇿
don't get me wrong we love Turkey but our currant best friend is India. Why India ? because they are helping us technologically and training 40000 afghan troops yearly, training medic, training pilots, training teachers and building roads, dams, military bases, airports, agriculture, ect. ect. We Love India and it's people.
***** hhhh Afghanistan is for the past 15 years supported by Nato and Isaf, Afghanistan's relationship with Turkey is dated back 100s of years, Ottomans, Seljuks, Rum Sultanate, the turkish sultanate of afghanistan (Ghaznavids) so yeh were are close enough.
+NeoLionMapping the nato occupation is indeed regarded as a very bad thing for the afghans. however, we know that the turks only took part in that occupation due to alliance reasons, not because of imperialistix reasons. and the turks are no combatants in afghanistan. thats why they are not regarded as hostile invaders (like the americans) but rather as brotherly guests. thats why no turkish solider has ever been attacked by any militants so far in afghanistan (except for one case in which a turkish soldier was in an american vehicle which was attacked)
Biscuit Khan what the f..ck?? i am pure afghan from mangal tribe of paktia. so what the hexk are you talking about? i said the truth. but obviously the truth hurts you
RU-vid recomendaron, just today. Looking back-- EIGHT years ago!-- and it's amazing how far your channel has gone: especially adding newer and better graphics, a team of knowledgeable and funny people, and occasional guest co- hosts. Yet, you still hold true to elements from your upbringing. Take a bow, Barbs: you deserve it. 👏👏👏
I'm a high school student in Japan and I learn about English and geography now. I really interested in geography now! So I gonna start watching all your videos from A to Z!!! Thank you for giving me a great opportunity!!!
Hi, just wanted to let you know that I and many other homeschoolers use your videos for school! Even if your videos are 8 years old. Thank you for letting me learn about other countries. It means a lot to me. I also like to quiz my friends with my geography knowledge.
Barbs in a post: ‘I feel I didn’t dive too deep into Afghanistan, so after all the countries I’ll make a better video for the Afghani-peeps’ Taliban realising they can be in Geography Now: ¯\_( ͡👁️ ͜ʖ ͡👁️)_/¯
I have been reading alot about demographics of Afghanistan, and i see a trend: Pashtun population which before invasion of Russia was considered to be as high as 70%, was manipulated to underscore pashtuns, as they were the primary resistance towards russain invasion. Then came the likes of Burhanuddine Rabbani and Ahmad Shah Massod, who naturally continued the practice. After which came the Americans. The credibility of CIA fact book is also questionable as before the invasion they were showing pashtun population above 50% and than during invasion it even went down to 38% before going back to 42% over the years??!!! Plus whats interesting to note is that even today CIA fact book shows Pashtun as 8% of the population of Pakistan, while Pakistan's own census 1998 (not estimation) shows Pashtuns more than 15.4% and as per Census 2017 they are well exceeding 18%. 18% includes pashtuns that speak pashto, that number can reach 25% if Pashtuns such as Hazarawal Pathans, Punjabi Pathans, Kashmiri Pathans etc etc are included. Something worth mentioning is that during the same time Tajik Population was inflated from 15% to even 37%!! in few cases. The Pashtun Areas in the Northern Afghanistan consists of rivers, where they were resettled by King Abdul Rehman and these areas, obviously, have larger population densities. General practice of counting anyone and everyone who cannot speak pashto, which may even include Pashtuns, as Tajiks has been encouraged. Historically, Herat has been called a Tajik city surrounded by Pashtuns, with significant Aimak and Farsiwan minority. Similarly, there has been no conclusive evidence of settling of Tajiks in Badghis or north western Afghanistan, but continuously other ethnic groups primarily, Aimaks, Kazalbash, Farsiwans, Arabs etc. have been counted as Tajiks, thereby bundling them all togather as Tajiks and propping up Tajik population. Also remember Iraq was said to be evenly distributed between shia and sunni, than at the time of invasion it was branded as a Shia country. They have successfully turned Sunni City of baghdad into Shia. They will be propping up Shia population in Afghanistan as well, soon. The population of non-pashtun areas has been exaggerated even if they are in the center of the country or any such areas that cannot support higher population density, which results in under representation of pashtun population in percentages. If we look at the Crop data of Afghanistan we will see that the province on the edges produces more than 2 crops a year while the provinces in the center and towards north east produces just one or a maximum of two, which again points towards low population density in the center and north east i.e. Hazara and Tajik areas. Then comes the histroy. Jamaludin Afghani, Ghilzai, Turis, Suri anyone or anything which is Pashtun and present pashtuns/Afghans in better light has been rebranded as someone else or the matter has been confused. Majority of riverbanks and delta in Afghanistan have been populated by Pashtuns and thats a fact. How can Badakshan and Daikundi etc have same population as Kandahar or Helmand? and how can Takhar or Ghazni have same population as Nangarhar?? Pashtuns in Afghanistan makes around -70%-75% of the Population, Tajiks are between 15-18%, Hazara and Uzbeks are between 7-9%.
Hate to be nit-picky, but the correct adjective for Afghanistan is "Afghan" (Afghan people, Afghan carpets...), not "Afghani". Afghani is the name of the currency of Afghanistan. Afghans spend Afghanis.
To be precise we Afghan's are called Afghan when referring to the native people. However, we use the term Afghani not just for our national currency but also for all things pertaining to Afghanistan. For instance Qalin e Afghani=Afghani carpet, Gheza e Afghani= Afghani food, Lebas e Afghani= Afghani clothing and so on. Hope you understand.
h j In Afghanistan we are not all Afghan, because Afghan refer just for pashton and in Afghanistan we are 16 ethnic. Afghanistan never colonised by other country. The tajik of Afghanistan has 5000 years civilisation but the Afghan has just 300 years. And the real name of this country is Ariana(Aryan=tajik=perse oriantal) or Greater khorasan. Afghanistan is a fake name and it will changed soon.
@@medrissarwary464 You are a USSR refugee who toke refuge when Russian USSR were converting your forefathers and you refused to and Afghans gave you refugee. Time to kick you back to Tajikistan, I'm sure it's doing better than Afghanistan now. Khar-asani Nazi!
@@medrissarwary464Tajiks don’t have 5000 years of history and they not are indigenous to Afghanistan. So I am curious where you got your information from.

@@medrissarwary464LOL at Tajiks have 5000 years of history and at Tajiks being Aryans. You know what Zionists & Khorasanis have in common? Both indulge in historical revisionism.
It’s not easy to make a video like this. The amount of research, planning, script writing etc. that goes into this is insane! Also bear in mind that this was the first video like this he did.
I love how Barby describes the series at the beginning of the very first episode. He doesn't say something like "yeah I'm gonna try this new series, see how it goes..." or "I may not continue this, so best adjust my wording accordingly". Nah, this man knew this series was gonna be straight fire, helping people learn and come together in an objective yet understanding and human and empathetic manner -- a true shining northern start in the RU-vid community. And it is. Thanks Barby and everyone who works on Geography Now C:

Here a thing ... Despite what happened between Iranians and Afghanis I still have love and respect for them. We need to come closer and live in harmony. Love from Tehran, Iran 🇮🇷 ❤️
