1. Alfabetisme:<\/strong>\u00a0Omtrent 12% av alle kvinner og 43% av alle menn kan lese og skrive i Afghanistan (landsgjennomsnittet er ca. 28%). Antallet l\u00e6rere har \u00f8kt fra rundt 20 000 i 2010 til litt over 142 500 i dag (2014).<\/p>\n

2. Nytt\u00e5r:<\/strong>\u00a0Afghanerne feirer nytt\u00e5r 21. mars, som kalles \"Nawroz\" og markerer v\u00e5rens f\u00f8rste dag. Tusenvis av mennesker reiser hvert \u00e5r til Afghanistans fjerde st\u00f8rste by, Mazar-e-Sharif, der dagen feires spesielt.<\/p>\n

3. Nasjonal idrett:<\/strong>\u00a0Afghanerne \u00f8nsker at nasjonalsporten Buzkashi (ogs\u00e5 kjent som Kok-boru eller Oglak Tartis) skal bli en olympisk idrett. Buzkashi, som ogs\u00e5 regnes som verdens villeste sport, er en lagsport som g\u00e5r ut p\u00e5 \u00e5 kaste en hodel\u00f8s geit over en m\u00e5llinje. Alle spillerne rir p\u00e5 hesteryggen. Sporten har blitt ut\u00f8vd i \u00e5rhundrer og sponses n\u00e5 av store selskaper som telefon- og flyselskaper.<\/p>\n

4. Poesi:<\/strong>\u00a0Poesi er en viktig del av afghansk kultur, og afghanerne har fortalt historier p\u00e5 vers i over 1000 \u00e5r. I landets tredje st\u00f8rste by, Herat, er det \"poesikveld\" hver tirsdag kveld, der menn, kvinner og barn samles for \u00e5 dele gamle og nye vers, lytte til tradisjonell musikk og nyte s\u00f8t te og kaker til langt p\u00e5 natt.<\/p>\n

5. Aleksander den store:<\/strong>\u00a0Aleksander den store (356-323 f.Kr.) gjenoppbygde den afghanske byen Herat i 330 f.Kr. Selv om han giftet seg tre ganger, fikk han bare barn med \u00e9n av konene sine: Roxana. Hun kom fra Baktria, et omr\u00e5de som ligger mellom Amu Darya og Hindu Kush-fjellene nord i dagens Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

Fakta: Afghanistans nasjonalsport \"buzkashi\" g\u00e5r ut p\u00e5 \u00e5 f\u00e5 en hodel\u00f8s geit over m\u00e5llinjen, og omtales ofte som en av verdens villeste idretter.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

6. De anglo-afghanske krigene:<\/strong>\u00a0Storbritannia tapte sin f\u00f8rste krig mot Afghanistan i 1842, men opprettet umiddelbart etterp\u00e5 diplomatiske forbindelser med landet. Den andre krigen mellom de to ble utkjempet i 1878-1880 og resulterte i \u00f8kt britisk innflytelse i landet. I den siste krigen i 1919 fikk Afghanistan sin uavhengighet med den anglo-afghanske traktaten (ogs\u00e5 kjent som Rawalpindi-traktaten). Det er imidlertid verdt \u00e5 merke seg at Afghanistan aldri var en del av Britisk India (og dermed det britiske kongeriket), selv om britene var innflytelsesrike herskere i perioden 1980-1919.<\/p>\n

7. Ledere:<\/strong>\u00a0Siden Afghanistan ble selvstendig i 1919, har flere ledere blitt avsatt: 1 abdiserte, 2 d\u00f8de i attentater, 2 ble fjernet, 3 ble avsatt og 4 ble henrettet.<\/p>\n

8. Senere kriger:<\/strong>\u00a0Siden slutten av 1970-tallet har Afghanistan v\u00e6rt involvert i en rekke kriger - blant annet krigen mot de sovjetiske invasjonsstyrkene i 1979 og den n\u00e5v\u00e6rende krigen i Afghanistan, som startet i 2001.<\/p>\n

9. Osama bin Laden:<\/strong>\u00a0Den kjente al-Qaida-lederen Osama bin Laden tilbrakte en \u00e5rrekke i Afghanistan, der han st\u00f8ttet Afghanistans krig mot Sovjetunionen p\u00e5 1980-tallet, men ogs\u00e5 samarbeidet med den islamske bevegelsen Taliban fra 1996 og utover. Han endte imidlertid sine dager 2. mai 2011, da amerikanske spesialstyrker drepte ham i Pakistan p\u00e5 ordre fra USAs president Barack Obama.<\/p>\n

10. Nasjonaldagen:<\/strong>\u00a0Afghanistans nasjonaldag feires hvert \u00e5r 19. august, til minne om dagen 19. august 1919 da kong Amanullah Khan erkl\u00e6rte uavhengighet.<\/p>\n
