The House of Durrani was a prominent Afghan dynasty founded in the mid-18th century by Ahmad Shah Abdali, who united Afghan tribes and established the Durrani Empire. It is considered the founder of modern Afghanistan, shaping its borders and political structure. The dynasty’s rule lasted until the early 19th century, influencing regional politics and resisting external invasions. Despite internal conflicts and eventual decline, the Durrani family played a crucial role in Afghanistan’s history, laying the groundwork for future leadership and national identity.
