Zabulistan

Zabulistan is a historical region in southeastern Afghanistan and parts of southwestern Pakistan, traditionally associated with the Zabul tribe and known for its rugged terrain and desert landscapes. It has a rich history linked to ancient Persia and was once part of larger empires such as the Persian Empire and later medieval Islamic states. Today, Zabulistan is not an official administrative region but a cultural and geographical area recognized for its tribal communities and historical significance. Its terrain influences the local lifestyle, economy, and cultural practices, reflecting a blend of Persian, Afghan, and tribal identities.
