Next to Turkey, Afghanistan h the
strongest country In the Mohammedan
world. 1t Is, like Switzerland, a noun
tain f~astness, and this has given It Its
Independence as a buffer state. Its
people are fierce fighters, a quality
the British Raj had occasion to test
in the two Afghan wars Of 1640-41 and
1850. The dangerous nature Of the
country's topography was also discov-
cred at this time. Afghanistan has
an area Of 100000 square miles, Inside
which both Germany and Bulgari9
could easily be placed.
The population Is 100000, or as
large as that OF Holland. The
b Aimaks, Ghilzais, Hazars, Kaflrs,
Pathans, Tojiks and the Uzbegs are
the principal races Of the population.
The great majority Of the Afghans
are Mohammedans Of the Sunni sect,
but there Is no such bitter luminosity
between the Shias and the Sunnls as
between these sects in India. The
Afghan chronicles call the people Beni-
Israil. and the people claim descent
from Saul. whom they call Talmut
Nine years after the proclamation Of
the mission Of Mohammed, the Az
