As a result of the turmoil that was occurring in Afghanistan during this era, many groups of people or entire countries would take over and rule Afghanistan until it wasn 't worth spending all the money on them.

As Pakistan grew from a theory into an actualized nation, it was proved that this wasn’t a solid foundation for a country as Bangladesh won independence, disregarding Muslim unity in exchange for…
