Parchami Party

The Parchami Party, also known as the Parcham Party of Afghanistan, emerged in the late 1960s as a faction within the larger Afghan communist movement. It was characterized by its support for a Marxist-Leninist ideology and sought to implement socialist reforms in Afghanistan. The party played a significant role in the political landscape during the 1970s and 1980s, particularly during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Its members known for their more nationalistic approach compared to other communist factions, aimed to modernize the country while facing opposition from conservative groups. The Parchami Party ultimately contributed to shaping Afghanistan’s tumultuous history during that era.
