1919 Treaty of Rawalpindi
The 1919 Treaty of Rawalpindi was an agreement between the British Empire and the Pashtun tribes in what is now Pakistan, ending the Third Anglo-Afghan War. The treaty confirmed the Durand Line as the border between British India and Afghanistan, and it included promises of peace, respect for tribal autonomy, and reparations from tribes that had participated in hostilities. The treaty aimed to establish stability and prevent further conflict in the region by formalizing boundaries and encouraging cooperation between the British authorities and local tribes.
