Non-National Flags Of Afghanistan


Pashtunistan Flag

(This flag was established during the campaign of reclaiming the Frontier land that is still under dispute between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The following years by the Royal Government and the Republic: 1951, 1953, 1957, 1964, 1966, 1973, 1974, 1975. The Northwest Frontier Province of Pakistan is dominated by Pashtuns who are afghans and want their land back in the hands of Afghan Government. This campaign was boosted during the Daud Khan era and was the biggest issue at the time. The famous Durrand Line was drawn by the British Empire in the early 1900's cutting off about 35 percent of the Afghan Pashtuns onto the Pakistan side known as the Northwestern Frontier Province (NWFP) but Afghanistan never agreed to the agreement. After the fall of the Afghan Government in 1978, the campaign died with it, but now the revival of the campaign is starting to pick up some speed.)
