Until Afghanistan becomes a nation, instead of a bunch of tribes fighting each other over territorial disputes, it will remain outside the community of nations. Unfortunately, the British then, and the Americans of recent history, did not recognize this simple truth. The people who are really hurt by this fact, are the average Afgan. They don't understand the concept of nationhood, and suffer accordingly. What a shame.

This is something of a myth that keeps cropping up and serves as a reminder to never ever trust Muslims. The British East India Company, invaded Afghanistan in 1838 to stop Russia expanding into the area. Some 21,000 troops, mostly Indian took part in the invasion, the Afghans were defeated and treaties sighned and most of the EIC army returned to India. In 1842 the remainder, about 4,000 soldiers and 12,000 civilians were granted safe passage to leave Afghanistan. These were then treacherously attacked and butchered.
