Kabul

Kabul was the capital Afghanistan. It became a provincial capital after the annexation of Afghanistan by the United Islamic Republic in August 2017.
The population of Kabul more than doubled between 2015 and 2030. This was largely a result of the demographic explosion in Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia during the same period. Despite being a poor city by global standards, Kabul offered by far the highest standard of living in the Afghanistan region, attracting impoverished migrants from all over former Afghanistan and others parts of Central Asia becoming a melting pot of Iranian peoples.
After the Academy of Persian Language of Literature declared Dari and Tajik to be Persian in 2019, the Kabuli dialect of Persian began moving closer to standard version of Farsi spoken in Tehran. Pashto was another common language in Kabul.
