In the 1960s, Afghanistan was divided between a westernised elite and a traditional, largely poor majority of the population. A communist revolution set these contradictions on fire.

In 1979, the Soviet army entered Afghanistan. In response, the Afghans called for Jihad against the godless invaders. The "Soviet Vietnam" began.

The Soviet army left Afghanistan, but the war continued between Mujahideen commanders. The country fell into chaos, until a new force emerged: the Taliban.

Following 9/11 and the overthrow of the Taliban, an international coalition tried to bring peace and democracy to Afghanistan. But hopes were short-lived.
