Afghanistan Maps

Posted in General at 10 am

As Afghanistan is such a point of discussion these days I decided to look up some maps. Note: some of these maps are pretty big, anywhere from 200k and up. All links open in new windows.

A political map of the country. The United Nations has a highly detailed political map as well. Look who’s at the top of the list of least developed countries.

A map of the former Soviet states that are north of Afghanistan. That’s interesting; there’s a border with China, though the area is sparsely populated according to some maps.

A map of the Ethno-lingustic groups in Afghanistan. The legend at the bottom organizes the groups into three major categories: Iranian, Turkic and Other.

Most of these are culled from U of Texas Library, which I found via a search on Google.
