Note to the Reader:

Hazaras do not agree with any population figures regarding Afghanistan. For over 200 years, the Hazaras have suffered the worst genocide, ethnic cleansing, and forced population displacement that favored the Pushtuns (the ruling class of Afghanistan). The historical Hazara homeland, Hazaristan (aka, Hazarajat), has been carved in ways to give the land away to the ruling Pushtun class. It should also be noted that there has never been a census in Afghanistan. The Hazaras welcome a census anytime under the close monitoring of Independent and International monitoring organizations.
