File talk:Ethnolinguistic Groups in Afghanistan.png
Curious as to when this map was produced as in present day (2004) Afghanistan there are differences compared to what the map suggests. For example in the North West of the country. The vast majority of the population here are Uzbek and speak Uzbek as a mother tongue as well as Dari. There are some pockets of Turkmen speakers, areas of Pashtun speakers and Tajiks but not many. The Afghan population has been very mobile through past centuries, and it is only in the latter half of the 20th Century their mobility was curtailed as a consequence of conflict and regime change particularly due to the invasion of the USSR in the early '70s. Mapping ethnolinguistic groupings needs to be updated to include the diaspora and return of refugees in the past 25 years.
