Badghis
Badghis province ("home of the winds") is one of the thirty-two provinces of Afghanistan. It is located on the northwest of Afghanistan, between the Murghab and Han Rud rivers, extending as far northward as the edge of the desert of Sarakhs. It includes the Chul formations through which the Russo-Afghan boundary runs. This region was surveyed by the boundary commission of 1885. Since that date it has been largely settled by the amir with purely Afghan tribes.
