The Great Game rivalry between Russia & Britain placed the mountainous Kingdom of Afghanistan in the middle. Emerging out of the dying embers of the Durrani Empire, Afghanistan fought hard for its existence; but their destiny would be disrupted with multiple invasions from the British in the south and a wariness of Russia incursions in the north. Over the course of 3 Wars starting in the 1830s and extending until 1919, we’ll learn of the greatest military disaster faced by the British Empire, the intrigues of an Afghan ruler who tried to play two great European powers against one another and even an invasion of British India by the Afghans. This is the story of Anglo-Afghan Wars.
