your eyes are barren. afghanistan;s geography and landscape are extremely beautiful sights. afghans prefer to remain pristine. while we battle nature and consume chemicals as substitutes for the real thing and wait to die of our consumer society diseases, the afghans will continue to live alongside nature! they are a hardy race and didn't become that way living in urban civilizations!!!!

looks barren with no signs of development. wherever there is population and growth with booming economy and industry, there is bound to be ugliness. this type of pristine beauty is possible only if you stay in dark ages. (not to confuse with european and canadian landscapes)
