Afghan Transitional Administration
The Afghan Transitional Administration (ATA), also known as the Afghan Transitional Authority, was the name of a temporary administration of Afghanistan put in place by the loya jirga of June 2002. It succeeded the Afghan Interim Administration, which was installed after the Bonn Conference.
Background
Following the invasion of Afghanistan, a U.N.-sponsored conference of a few Afghan leaders in Bonn led to the appointment of the Afghan Interim Administration under the chairmanship of Hamid Karzai. However, this Interim Administration, which was not broadly representative, was scheduled to last for only six months, before being replaced by a Transitional Administration. The move to this second stage would require the convening of a traditional Afghan "grand assembly", called a Loya Jirga. This Emergency Loya Jirga elected a new Head of State and appointed the Transitional Administration, which, in turn, would run the country for a maximum of two more years until a "fully representative government" could be elected through free and fair elections.

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.

Does a Transitional Government Offer the Last Path to an Afghan Peace?
The quest for a political solution to the Afghan conflict is premised on the broad belief that there is no apparent military solution and that the only means for achieving peace is through negotiating a sustainable power-sharing arrangement. Efforts to date have at best stalled while violence has intensified across Afghanistan. In what appears to be a last-ditch attempt to salvage the peace process, the Biden administration has promoted the convening of a conference in Turkey during April to muster international support behind a fresh attempt at intra-Afghan peace negotiations and a ceasefire. In hopes of jump-starting substantive talks, the U.S. has laid out a somewhat detailed framework for a transitional power-sharing government. The U.S. initiative raises numerous questions: How clos...

Afghanistan 'ready' for Taliban violence after US withdrawal, Afghan president says

In hopes of jump-starting substantive talks, the U.S. has laid out a somewhat detailed framework for a transitional power-sharing government.
The U.S. initiative raises numerous questions: How closely is the American proposal tied up with its decision on troop withdrawal? To what extent can international pressure be expected to influence the Taliban and the Kabul government? Why would the stumbling blocks already encountered in last year’s Doha talks not be replicated in Istanbul? Although both the Taliban and Afghan leadership have expressed objections to the American formula, does it nevertheless offer a useful starting point for new negotiations? What are the prospects for the formation of an interim government? From where would it draw its legitimacy and to whom would it be accountable? A far larger question is whether currently, any negotiated political outcome to the Afghan conflict is realistic.

STORYLINE:
The Northern Alliance said on Saturday it was ready to transfer power to a UN-backed transitional council and that Alliance leader Burhanuddin Rabbani would not head the new body.
The Alliance's foreign minister, Dr. Abdullah Abdullah, also said his group was prepared to "be flexible" on the issue of international peacekeepers in Afghanistan but they would require a UN mandate and their stay in the country should be limited.
"We are ready to transfer power to a transitional authority and the head of the transitional authority will not be the head of the Islamic State of Afghanistan," Abdullah said, referring to Rabbani.
The Northern Alliance, which controls the capital Kabul and most of the country after the collapse of the Taliban, is facing strong international pressure to break a deadlock in talks underway near Bonn, Germany, on Afghanistan's political future.
Alliance delegates in Germany had been stalling on providing names of people it wants to serve in an interim administration.
During his press conference, Abdullah did not state unequivocally that the names would be provided.

STORYLINE:
Hamid Karzai, the US-backed leader of the interim Afghan administration, was overwhelmingly elected on Thursday as head of the new transitional government to rule the country for the next 18 months.
The 44-year-old chairman of the current interim government won 1,295 votes from delegates to the grand council, or Loya Jirga which has been meeting this week in Kabul.
Three others had been nominated although one was disqualified for lack of support.
Karzai won thunderous applause when the results were announced by the commission chairman, Ismail Qasim Yar.
The voting represented the first steps towards democracy for a country emerging from the ravages of two decades of war and poverty.
Karzai, praised for his reconciliation efforts during six months in power, promised a brighter future if the country's 27 million people can put aside ethnic differences and work together in peace.
US Envoy to Afghanistan Zalmay Khalilzad sees Thursday's events as an opportunity for Afghanistan to experience a fresh start.
Afghanistan's former rulers, the Taliban, and their foreign fighters - including those affiliated with Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network - were ousted in a US-led military campaign which followed the September 11 attacks.
The Taliban's departure was greeted with a massive international effort to help rebuild Afghanistan.

The quest for a political solution to the Afghan conflict is premised on the broad belief that there is no apparent military solution and that the only means for achieving peace is through negotiating a sustainable power-sharing arrangement. Efforts to date have at best stalled while violence has intensified across Afghanistan. In what appears to be a last-ditch attempt to salvage the peace process, the Biden administration has promoted the convening of a conference in Turkey during April to muster international support behind a fresh attempt at intra-Afghan peace negotiations and a ceasefire. In hopes of jump-starting substantive talks, the U.S. has laid out a somewhat detailed framework for a transitional power-sharing government.
The U.S. initiative raises numerous questions: How closely is the American proposal tied up with its decision on troop withdrawal? To what extent can international pressure be expected to influence the Taliban and the Kabul government? Why would the stumbling blocks already encountered in last year’s Doha talks not be replicated in Istanbul? Although both the Taliban and Afghan leadership have expressed objections to the American formula, does it nevertheless offer a useful starting point for new negotiations? What are the prospects for the formation of an interim government? From where would it draw its legitimacy and to whom would it be accountable? A far larger question is whether currently, any negotiated political outcome to the Afghan conflict is realistic.

"The head of the transitional authority will not be the President of the Islamic state of Afghanistan, of course. In that issue there was no differences right from the beginning, even before entering Kabul we had made it clear that our intention from entering Kabul would not be to prolong our own tenure or to monopolise power, but rather to use this opportunity, to seize this opportunity for achieving a lasting political settlement."

5. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr Abdullah Abdullah, Northern Alliance Foreign Minister:
"He (Osama Bin Laden) is in southern Afghanistan, still in southern Afghanistan and his people are active still, and I think they are planning to move towards the mountainous areas of Qalat, Zabul province as well as Kandahar, so they are making preparations for a guerrilla warfare."
6. Cutaways
7. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr Abdullah Abdullah, Northern Alliance Foreign Minister:
"First of all there is no presence of the united front's forces in Kandahar, there is no presence as such. We have sent our commanders, some of our commanders to assist the people who are actively resisting against the Taliban, or to cooperate or coordinate their efforts with the groups which are active in the resistance. If they don't need it it's up to them, we are not pushing for that, but I think the situation is such that for over five weeks now, there has been severe fighting around Kandahar with little progress, we hope that, we think that we all should join hands in order to get rid of this menace as soon as possible."

9. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr Abdullah Abdullah, Northern Alliance Foreign Minister:
"Our official position in regards to Taiwan is that we have been supportive of one China policy, that has been our position, and in regards to seeking economical support from China, or from other countries, of course we will seek support for the reconstruction of Afghanistan, unconditional support from all countries which are interested in that."
10. Cutaways
11. SOUNDBITE: (English) Dr Abdullah Abdullah, Northern Alliance Foreign Minister:
"There have been some contacts with Pakistan authorities, but the issue of the meeting or a summit outside Afghanistan is not finalised."
12. Pan of media
STORYLINE:
The Northern Alliance said on Saturday it was ready to transfer power to a UN-backed transitional council and that Alliance leader Burhanuddin Rabbani would not head the new body.
The Alliance's foreign minister, Dr. Abdullah Abdullah, also said his group was prepared to "be flexible" on the issue of international peacekeepers in Afghanistan but they would require a UN mandate and their stay in the country should be limited.
"We are ready to transfer power to a transitional authority and the head of the transitional authority will not be the head of the Islamic State of Afghanistan," Abdullah said, referring to Rabbani.
The Northern Alliance, which controls the capital Kabul and most of the country after the collapse of the Taliban, is facing strong international pressure to break a deadlock in talks underway near Bonn, Germany, on Afghanistan's political future.
Alliance delegates in Germany had been stalling on providing names of people it wants to serve in an interim administration.
During his press conference, Abdullah did not state unequivocally that the names would be provided.

STORYLINE:
Hamid Karzai, the US-backed leader of the interim Afghan administration, was overwhelmingly elected on Thursday as head of the new transitional government to rule the country for the next 18 months.
The 44-year-old chairman of the current interim government won 1,295 votes from delegates to the grand council, or Loya Jirga which has been meeting this week in Kabul.
Three others had been nominated although one was disqualified for lack of support.
Karzai won thunderous applause when the results were announced by the commission chairman, Ismail Qasim Yar.
The voting represented the first steps towards democracy for a country emerging from the ravages of two decades of war and poverty.
Karzai, praised for his reconciliation efforts during six months in power, promised a brighter future if the country's 27 million people can put aside ethnic differences and work together in peace.
US Envoy to Afghanistan Zalmay Khalilzad sees Thursday's events as an opportunity for Afghanistan to experience a fresh start.
Afghanistan's former rulers, the Taliban, and their foreign fighters - including those affiliated with Osama bin Laden's al-Qaida network - were ousted in a US-led military campaign which followed the September 11 attacks.
The Taliban's departure was greeted with a massive international effort to help rebuild Afghanistan.

Afghan Transitional Administration
The Afghan Transitional Administration (ATA), also known as the Afghan Transitional Authority, was the name of a temporary administration of Afghanistan put in place by the loya jirga of June 2002. It succeeded the Afghan Interim Administration, which was installed after the Bonn Conference.
Background
Following the invasion of Afghanistan, a U.N.-sponsored conference of a few Afghan leaders in Bonn led to the appointment of the Afghan Interim Administration under the chairmanship of Hamid Karzai. However, this Interim Administration, which was not broadly representative, was scheduled to last for only six months, before being replaced by a Transitional Administration. The move to this second stage would require the convening of a traditional Afghan "grand assembly", called a Loya Jirga. This Emergency Loya Jirga elected a new Head of State and appointed the Transitional Administration, which, in turn, would run the country for a maximum of two more years until a "fully representative government" could be elected through free and fair elections.
