Afghan nationalism

The traditional black-red-green tricolor is the main symbol of Afghan nationalism[1]

Afghan nationalism, or pan-Afghanism,[2] is the belief or assertion that the Afghan people are a nation. Afghan nationalists promote the cultural integration of all the people living in Afghanistan. The concept of Afghan nationalism politically overlaps with Pashtun nationalism, as the latter favour the ideas of a "Greater Afghanistan" (i.e. it claims the Pashtun-speaking parts of Pakistan for Afghanistan).[3] However, Afghan nationalists do not always demand for the Pashtun-speaking parts of Pakistan.
