📅 8 Ougùstùs 1919 📍 Afghanistan, Reino Uni

The Rawalpindi treaty ended the Third Anglo-Afghan War and recognized Afghanistan’s right to conduct its own foreign relations. It followed a British attempt to preserve imperial control over the country’s diplomacy and borderlands. Afghan independence was therefore an outcome of both negotiation and armed resistance, not a gift from Britain.
