1979 in Afghanistan


Reliable sources are always key when writing an essay or even just trying to find the best information possible. Researchers usually look for if the information is written in chronological order in terms of the events that occurred, the word choice and the over all understanding of the topic. Well-known sites are always helpful to researchers. If the site has a good reputation the researchers can rely on the sufficient information that they are reading. Once researchers see the same facts on different websites you can almost guarantee that the information is correct. This is a simple way of double-checking your facts.   

The research that was collected from many reliable sources showed key facts to the researchers. The main idea during this time period in Afghanistan was that a civil war broke out. The country during the 1970’s was already started to become corrupt. Once the prime minister, Hazifullah Amin was killed a new leader came into power. Babrak Kamal replaced the old prime minister. The Russians backed this man. During this time a group of Afghani people started a motion called Mujahdeen. This motion was created because the new prime minister wanted to abolish the Muslim traditions. The people at the time would not have it. The Russians, who were heavily involved in this countries economy and political state decided to send in many troops into Afghanistan to fight against these rebels. The funny thing was, was that the Russians didn’t send in many of their own soldiers but the Afghani men. This was the reason why the war that occurred in the 1970s to 1980s was called the civil war of Afghanistan.

  1. Men were so powerful in the past. Afghan women were oppressed and enslaved on their hand. Even they had a better life that women can go to school and work, it just for a while. Afghan women have been martyred a long time. And there are still many women have not safe in Afghan. People from anywhere are still helping them. There is more and more attention about Afghan women’s right from people and society. Someday in the future, Afghan women can enjoy the peace and right like us.
