Graveyard of empires

[Safriz]

Despite of all its tribal warfares and 90s civil war, Afghan are living togather in the same country for last 3 centuries. Same can be said about new nation like pakistani? Just after 24 years of its creation, half of pakistanis separated as bangladeshis after bloody civil war....balochs are in rebellion since 1947. Some Sindhis threaten of sindhodesh. Mohajirs are in ethnic riots with every one. Pashtuns belt has taliban problem....sectarian violence in punjab and quetta. Are you better than afghans?

Afghans living together?
not really..more than half are in Pakistan....

and the rest are fighting and killing each other on daily basis...

He married Roxana to end the resistance, because he couldn't end it militarily.

The fact remains that Alexander took over local (Persian, Iranic) customs and married an Bactrian-Iranic princess, so in the end it was Alexander who was conquered.

as in no one cares about you as a people and just wants the land for their own benifit?

Quetta alone is worth more than all of Afghanistan in every way

Your karachi is graveyard of all non-mohajir ethnicities...karachi is "land of ethnic riots".

The Mongols conquered Afghanistan. Also the Greeks.

Also the Persians,Ashoka,Hindu shahi kingdom(?) and countless others..

There is a difference between invading a territory and subduing its populace. As @Pak-one rightfully mentioned, you are conquered when you have given up resisting you invaders armies and have adopted his culture and his way of life.

Afghans, or at least the Pashtuns, still follow their old tribal codes, still maintain their strict tribal heritage, and still speak their ancient Pashto.

where ever people are proud of their murderous history and want to continue with that,they are in stone ages and deserve to remain there...
