Afghan Interim Administration
The Afghan Interim Administration (AIA), also known as the Afghan Interim Authority, was the first administration of Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban regime and was the highest authority of the country from December 22, 2001 until July 13, 2002.
Background
After the September 11 attacks, the United States launched a "Global War on Terrorism" as part of its Operation Enduring Freedom, to remove the Taliban government from power in Afghanistan. Just after the commencement of the invasion of Afghanistan, the United Nations sponsored an international conference in Bonn, Germany with Afghan anti-Taliban leaders to re-create the State of Afghanistan and form an interim government.
The Bonn Agreement established an Afghan Interim Authority which would be established upon the official transfer of power on 22 December 2001. The Interim Authority would consist of Interim Administration a Supreme Court of Afghanistan and a Special Independent Commission for the Convening of an Emergency Loya Jirga (Grand Council). The Emergency Loya Jirga was to be held within 6 months after the establishing of the AIA and would put in place an Afghan Transitional Authority which would replace the Afghan Interim Authority. The Afghan Interim Administration, the most important part of the Interim Authority, would be composed of a Chairman, five Vice Chairmen and 24 other members which each head a department of the Interim Administration. Also decided was that Pashtun leader Hamid Karzai would be the chairman of the Interim Administration.

Afghanistan 
i/æfˈɡænᵻstæn/ (Pashto/Dari: افغانستان, Afġānistān), officially the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, is a landlocked country located within South Asia and Central Asia. It has a population of approximately 32 million, making it the 42nd most populous country in the world. It is bordered by Pakistan in the south and east; Iran in the west; Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan in the north; and China in the far northeast. Its territory covers 652,000 km2 (252,000 sq mi), making it the 41st largest country in the world.
Human habitation in Afghanistan dates back to the Middle Paleolithic Era, and the country's strategic location along the Silk Road connected it to the cultures of the Middle East and other parts of Asia. Through the ages the land has been home to various peoples and witnessed numerous military campaigns; notably by Alexander the Great, Muslim Arabs, Mongols, British, Soviet Russians, and in the modern-era by Western powers. The land also served as the source from which the Kushans, Hephthalites, Samanids, Saffarids, Ghaznavids, Ghorids, Khiljis, Mughals, Hotaks, Durranis, and others have risen to form major empires.

War in Afghanistan (2001–14)
The War in Afghanistan (or the American war in Afghanistan) is the period in which the United States invaded Afghanistan after the September 11 attacks. Supported initially by close allies, they were later joined by NATO beginning in 2003. It followed the Afghan Civil War's 1996–2001 phase. Its public aims were to dismantle al-Qaeda and to deny it a safe base of operations in Afghanistan by removing the Taliban from power. Key allies, including the United Kingdom, supported the U.S. from the start to the end of the phase. This phase of the War is the longest war in United States history.
In 2001, U.S. President George W. Bush demanded that the Taliban hand over Osama bin Laden and expel al-Qaeda; bin Laden had already been wanted by the United Nations since 1999. The Taliban declined to extradite him unless given what they deemed convincing evidence of his involvement in the 9/11 attacks and declined demands to extradite other terrorism suspects apart from bin Laden. The request was dismissed by the U.S. as a delaying tactic, and on 7 October 2001 it launched Operation Enduring Freedom with the United Kingdom. The two were later joined by other forces, including the Northern Alliance. In December 2001, the United Nations Security Council established the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), to assist the Afghan interim authorities with securing Kabul. At the Bonn Conference in December 2001, Hamid Karzai was selected to head the Afghan Interim Administration, which after a 2002 loya jirga in Kabul became the Afghan Transitional Administration. In the popular elections of 2004, Karzai was elected president of the country, now named the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.

Afghanis-tan
Afghanis-tan (あふがにすタン, Afuganisu-tan, see note on name below) or Afghanistan is a Japanese yonkoma manga, originally published as a webcomic, by Timaking (ちまきing). It is also the name of the heroine of the manga. The manga is nicknamed Afgan (あふがん, Afugan)
Background
Afghanis-tan illustrates the modern history of Afghanistan and its neighboring countries, starting from the imperialist era in the 19th century, through moe anthropomorphism. The title character, a short and clumsy bishōjo, is a national personification of Afghanistan. Other female characters personify the nearby nations of Central Asia, such as Pakistan and Uzbekistan. Nations that have fought wars in Afghanistan at various times, such as Britain, the Soviet Union and the United States also make appearances. The Taliban government and Al-Qaeda terrorist group are also represented in the comic.
Each yonkoma strip is accompanied by an "Afghan Memo" that explains in prose some of the background and history of the nations depicted. Additional pages give short biographies of the characters.

An interim governmentwould bring ruinto Afghanistan!!
A US proposal to dissolve the Afghan administration risks a tragic repeat of the past.the agreement signed between the United States and the Taliban marks a milestone in America’s longest ever war.the majority of U.S. troops are expected to withdraw from Afghanistan by the end of 2021. In turn, and if this agreement is successfully implemented, sections of the Taliban could be expected to play a larger role in Afghan politics. This is hardly desirable for a country like India.

9. SOUNDBITE (Pashtun) Hamid Karzai, President-elect of Afghanistan:
"When the loyal jirga has finished its meeting, we should all meet yet again for more discussions of this nature"
10. Wide shot of everyone applauding.
STORYLINE:
Afghan statesmen lined up behind microphones at the loyal jirga in Kabul on Saturday, for a further day of airing grievances and ideas about their nation's future.
With the selection of Hamid Karzai as president of an 18-month transitional government, the loyal jirga, or grand council, turned its attention to rounding out the rest of the new administration -- including a 111-seat legislature.
But by mid morning on Saturday, two days after Karzai's victory, the subject had not come up. Instead, delegates spoke on a variety of topics. Their message rang resoundingly clear: Listen to us.
"If people want peace, they will have to accept all the decisions of the delegates here. If people want war, then they won't accept any of our decisions," said delegate Halima Khazan from eastern Gardez.
Mohammad Kazem Ahang, a loyal jirga commission member, said Saturday afternoon that the council would finish its business on Monday, a day later than scheduled, after it completes the task of fashioning a new legislature.
The beginning of the grand council last week was delayed a day over questions about the role of the former king.
Interior Minister Yunus Qanooni, who offered to resign earlier this week, scolded delegates on Saturday for straying in their speeches and insulting each other.
Karzai, addressing the delegates, reminded them of the job ahead -- forming the legislative body of regional representatives that will guide the government into the future and represent the people.
He asked them to do so in the next few days, then stay on after the grand council adjourns.
Some delegates have complained the loyal jirga process is being unduly influenced by warlords who have created an atmosphere of intimidation.
The US special envoy to Afghanistan defended America's alliance with local warlords, saying they are necessary in the fight against al-Qaida and the Taliban.
Critics say those ties have undermined the current administration and may slow Karzai's ability to extend his authority after the new government emerges.

Karzai will meet President George W. Bush, administration officials and members of Congress during his stay.
On Sunday, Karzai attended a prayer service at a mosque in suburban Virginia in the afternoon, addressing several hundred Afghan-Americans on the situation in Afghanistan.
He later told a large crowd of Afghans and academics at Georgetown University that every Afghan would be allowed to vote for a new government to replace his interim administration.
He said the new government would be influenced by Islam, but would not politicise it.
Karzai urged students in the audience and thousands of other Afghan professionals around the world to take their skills back to Afghanistan, adding if someone wanted to be president, he or she would be welcome.
Karzai will meet US President George W. Bush on Monday.
He is expected to ask the president to maintain the US military presence in Afghanistan to help the interim government combat remnants of al Qaida installations and war lords.
Bush is considering withdrawing the United States forces once the interim government gives way to an elected government in June.
In addition to security issues, Bush and Karzai are expected to discuss rebuilding Afghanistan, and political issues such as the role of women in Afghan civic institutions, a US official said.
Karzai will also be a guest of honour at Bush's State of the Union address on Tuesday.

STORYLINE:
The Northern Alliance on Thursday said it would not oppose an international security force to ensure peace during an interim administration.
Alliance delegation leader Younus Qanooni confirmed that at a news conference in Bonn.
On Wednesday, he had told reporters that the Alliance rejected an outside force.
But at the presser, he told reporters he wanted to clarify that an outside force could be acceptable once an interim administration was in place.
Qanooni said progress on creating an interim administration was being made.
The United Nations said earlier that Afghan factions meeting in Bonn were moving toward a formula for power-sharing in a two-body interim administration to run the country until a national council could be convened in Kabul.
The Alliance, whose fighters hold power on the ground, went further, saying it had agreed with the former Afghan king's delegation on a formula for an interim executive council, one of the two bodies envisioned.
It said it had agreed with the ex-king's side that the executive council would have 42 members, with 21 members each from the Alliance and the delegation of former King Mohammad Zaher Shah.
But a UN spokesman cautioned that a deal had yet to be sealed, partly because two smaller exile groups also at the talks had other proposals.

STORYLINE:
Afghan statesmen lined up behind microphones at the loyal jirga in Kabul on Saturday, for a further day of airing grievances and ideas about their nation's future.
With the selection of Hamid Karzai as president of an 18-month transitional government, the loyal jirga, or grand council, turned its attention to rounding out the rest of the new administration -- including a 111-seat legislature.
But by mid morning on Saturday, two days after Karzai's victory, the subject had not come up. Instead, delegates spoke on a variety of topics. Their message rang resoundingly clear: Listen to us.
"If people want peace, they will have to accept all the decisions of the delegates here. If people want war, then they won't accept any of our decisions," said delegate Halima Khazan from eastern Gardez.
Mohammad Kazem Ahang, a loyal jirga commission member, said Saturday afternoon that the council would finish its business on Monday, a day later than scheduled, after it completes the task of fashioning a new legislature.
The beginning of the grand council last week was delayed a day over questions about the role of the former king.
Interior Minister Yunus Qanooni, who offered to resign earlier this week, scolded delegates on Saturday for straying in their speeches and insulting each other.
Karzai, addressing the delegates, reminded them of the job ahead -- forming the legislative body of regional representatives that will guide the government into the future and represent the people.
He asked them to do so in the next few days, then stay on after the grand council adjourns.
Some delegates have complained the loyal jirga process is being unduly influenced by warlords who have created an atmosphere of intimidation.
The US special envoy to Afghanistan defended America's alliance with local warlords, saying they are necessary in the fight against al-Qaida and the Taliban.
Critics say those ties have undermined the current administration and may slow Karzai's ability to extend his authority after the new government emerges.

The acting Afghan Interior Minister, Abdul Satar Mirzakwal has stated via a television address on Sunday that the Afghan capital, Kabul is "secure" despite encroaching fighting with the Taliban.
Mirzakwal went on to say "anyone who causes disorder in the city will face serious confrontation" and stated again that "the security of the city is guaranteed."
The minister also advised of plans for the short term future of the city stating, "the agreement for the big city of Kabul is that the power will be transferred peacefully to an interim administration."
The acting Afghan Defense Minister, Bismillah Khan Mohammadi also spoke to press reinforcing Mirzakwal's message that "Kabul is secure" adding "your sons, your security forces and others are ready for defending Kabul."
Taliban fighters entered the outskirts of the Afghan capital on Sunday and said they were awaiting a "peaceful transfer" of the city after promising not to take it by force, but the uncertainty panicked residents who raced to the leave the capital, with workers fleeing government offices and helicopters landing at the U.S. Embassy.

Afghanistan's interim leader has appealed for thousands of young Afghans to return home and help rebuild their shattered country.
Hamid Karzai also promised a return to full democratic government on his first day of an official visit to Washington.
Karzai will meet President George W. Bush, administration officials and members of Congress during his stay.
On Sunday, Karzai attended a prayer service at a mosque in suburban Virginia in the afternoon, addressing several hundred Afghan-Americans on the situation in Afghanistan.
He later told a large crowd of Afghans and academics at Georgetown University that every Afghan would be allowed to vote for a new government to replace his interim administration.
He said the new government would be influenced by Islam, but would not politicise it.
Karzai urged students in the audience and thousands of other Afghan professionals around the world to take their skills back to Afghanistan, adding if someone wanted to be president, he or she would be welcome.
Karzai will meet US President George W. Bush on Monday.
He is expected to ask the president to maintain the US military presence in Afghanistan to help the interim government combat remnants of al Qaida installations and war lords.
Bush is considering withdrawing the United States forces once the interim government gives way to an elected government in June.
In addition to security issues, Bush and Karzai are expected to discuss rebuilding Afghanistan, and political issues such as the role of women in Afghan civic institutions, a US official said.
Karzai will also be a guest of honour at Bush's State of the Union address on Tuesday.

In turn, and if this agreement is successfully implemented, sections of the Taliban could be expected to play a larger role in Afghan politics. This is hardly desirable for a country like India.
Afghan Interim Administration
The Afghan Interim Administration (AIA), also known as the Afghan Interim Authority, was the first administration of Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban regime and was the highest authority of the country from December 22, 2001 until July 13, 2002.
Background
After the September 11 attacks, the United States launched a "Global War on Terrorism" as part of its Operation Enduring Freedom, to remove the Taliban government from power in Afghanistan. Just after the commencement of the invasion of Afghanistan, the United Nations sponsored an international conference in Bonn, Germany with Afghan anti-Taliban leaders to re-create the State of Afghanistan and form an interim government.
The Bonn Agreement established an Afghan Interim Authority which would be established upon the official transfer of power on 22 December 2001. The Interim Authority would consist of Interim Administration a Supreme Court of Afghanistan and a Special Independent Commission for the Convening of an Emergency Loya Jirga (Grand Council). The Emergency Loya Jirga was to be held within 6 months after the establishing of the AIA and would put in place an Afghan Transitional Authority which would replace the Afghan Interim Authority. The Afghan Interim Administration, the most important part of the Interim Authority, would be composed of a Chairman, five Vice Chairmen and 24 other members which each head a department of the Interim Administration. Also decided was that Pashtun leader Hamid Karzai would be the chairman of the Interim Administration.
