Afghanistan - officially the Islamic Republic of
Afghanistan - is a landlocked country at the crossroads of Asia. Generally
considered a part of Central Asia, it is sometimes ascribed to a regional
bloc in either the Middle East or South Asia, as it has cultural, ethno-linguistic,
and geographic links with most of its neighbors. It is bordered by Iran in the west,
Pakistan in the south and east, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan in the north,
and the People’s Republic of China to the east. The name Afghanistan is derived from
Persian, meaning "land of the Afghans".
