As an important hub of the ancient Silk Road, it was once the core area of civilizations such as the Persian Empire and the Kushan dynasty, and boasts world cultural heritages such as the Bamiyan Buddhas. The country has a population of about 40 million, with multi-ethnic groups such as Pashtuns and Tajiks, Pashto and Dari as the main languages, and Islam as the state religion.
