Why was the British Empire, the world hegemon at the time, invaded three times, and why was the weak

The reason why Britain is constantly defeated by Afghanistan is that firstly, Afghanistan has obvious geographical advantages, and many ** cannot play a role here, secondly, the Afghan people are brave and good at fighting, and the internal cohesion of the tribe is relatively high, and they are united with the outside world, and finally, Afghanistan's ** is relatively sufficient, and it can produce itself**.

Afghanistan is surrounded by Central, South and West Asia, and is a transportation hub, and such a geographical location is very special, and all the major powers want to compete for such a place and completely control this place. Such a geographical location has kept Afghanistan at the center of the fighting, so they have no choice but to protect themselves. Britain, on the other hand, fought Afghanistan three times in the 80 years from 1839 to 1919 until it gave up and recognized Afghanistan as independent.

The people of Afghanistan took advantage of their country's geographical advantages and developed flexible tactics, hiding in caves in the face of enemy bombardment, and when they found that they could start a ground war, they formed small groups of 10 to 15 people and fought the enemy without mercy. Whether it is a child or an old man, they are a soldier, they can always control the movement of the enemy, almost every Afghan has **, ready for war all the time. Afghanistan is made up of tribes, and the management of the tribes is also very loose, even if the enemy army wins a tribe, it does not mean that the entire Afghan tribe has been conquered.

Afghanistan is weak, and the peculiarity of its location has attracted a lot of wars, but the people living in Afghanistan have never thought of giving up and retreating, and the game between the big countries has not stopped, so it will always face war, and a peaceful life is out of reach.

The rising sense of national independence, the humanistic characteristics of being fierce and brave, and the treacherous and steep geographical situation are important reasons why Afghanistan, a small and weak country, was able to defeat the powerful British Empire three times.

First of all, all three Anglo-Afghan wars took place in the context of the rising national consciousness of Afghanistan and independence. During the first Anglo-Afghan war of 1839-1842, when the British colonizers invaded Kabul, used violence to maintain their rule, and plundered the wealth of the people, the most angry thing for the Afghan people was to seduce local women. The British colonizers allowed the military officers' wives and children to accompany their families, and for the Afghan people, this was undoubtedly a preparation for the dove to occupy the magpie's nest and rule for a long time.

During the Second Anglo-Afghan War, the signing of the Treaty of Gandamak aroused a wave of righteous indignation in Afghanistan, which also led to a nationwide anti-British fire. During the Third Anglo-Afghan War, although Afghanistan was at a disadvantage in terms of equipment, it fought for independence and freedom, with high morale and bravery, and received the encouragement of the Indian national liberation movement, and finally defeated the well-equipped British army.

Most of the ethnic groups with large populations in Afghanistan are cross-border ethnic groups. The unique geographical location has created important conditions for Afghanistan to become a cross-border ethnic settlement area in Central Asia. Coupled with a long-term closed environment, lack of resources, and economic poverty, Afghans have a fierce and aggressive character, which is manifested in the heroic fighting of the three wars against the British.

Afghanistan's rugged geography, especially the Kabul River valley and the Khyber Pass, is India's main communication route to Central Asia, with the exception of the basin near Jalalabad, which is flanked by mountains and steep roads. The valley is filled with large caves, criss-crossed and unfathomable, and with a little modification, it is the perfect battlefield for guerrilla warfare. This is also the site where 10,000 British troops retreated and were completely annihilated by the Afghan army during the First Anglo-Afghan War.

The Afghan people were familiar with the complex terrain and made full use of the steep valley caves, which dealt a heavy blow to the British army.

The reason for the defeat was that they looked down on small Afghanistan too much, and the soldiers of Afghanistan were very brave and brave, and everyone was jealous and hateful, so they could defeat the British Empire.

That's because Afghanistan is united by the unity of his people, stubborn resistance, plus the accumulation of experience from previous battles, and the subsequent change of Afghan policy. In fact, it was because Britain was too arrogant and underestimated the enemy.

The whole Afghan nation has a strong sense of nationality, and they are able to defend their homeland to the death without fear of a strong army, which is the main reason for the defeat of Britain.

Mainly because Afghans have a strong sense of nationality and are fierce and united, and can defend their homeland to the death.

Because the nation was quite united at that time, they exerted all their strength, and they were fighting on their own, so they were able to succeed in the end.

Because Afghanistan is very united, the people of Afghanistan are very strong and warlike, and their geographical location is very advantageous.

Because Afghanistan is a nation with vigorous vitality, strong national consciousness, and tenacious spirit of resistance, this shows that only by daring to fight hard can there be a chance to win.

Any powerful country that wants to conquer a nation with vigorous vitality, strong national consciousness, and tenacious spirit of resistance by force is doomed to failure. It also fully proves that the unjust war of British colonial expansion against Afghanistan is bound to fail.

Afghanistan has a strong sense of nation, a people who are resilient in their rebellion, and his spirit of subordination never stops.

The world's most powerful countries have never taken advantage of Afghanistan, including the United Kingdom, the empire on which the sun never sets. From the beginning of the British entry into Afghanistan, the resistance in Afghanistan has not stopped.

The United States and Britain invaded Afghanistan because of the anti-terrorist needs of the United States and the international community.

Retaliatory action, this is a war against terror.

Cause: Terrorist attacks in 2001.

On September 13, 2001, U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell held a press conference to announce that bin Laden had been identified as the prime suspect in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. On the evening of 14 September, the US House of Representatives agreed to authorize US Bush to use force against him. According to US opinion polls, 90 percent of the American people support the United States in carrying out armed strikes against terrorists.

At around 13 p.m. on October 7, 2001, Bush announced that the United States and Britain had begun a military strike against the military targets of the Afghan Taliban authorities and the Qatar training camp of Islamic extremist bin Laden. The war on terror broke out.

Introduction to the 2001 war in Afghanistan:

The 2001 war in Afghanistan was a war waged by the U.S.-led coalition against al-Qaeda and the Taliban on October 7, 2001. Coalition officials say the purpose of the war is to arrest bin Laden and other al-Qaeda members and punish the Taliban for supporting ****. On May 2, 2012, Obama, who was on a surprise visit to Afghanistan, said that the war in Afghanistan was coming to an end.

Afghanistan is a strategic location, and the United States used it to contain the Soviet Union during the Cold War, and the terrain of Afghanistan is complex, and 911 has made the United States even more inclined to fight Afghanistan.

Landlord, look at the map of the Du Afghanistan, located in Central Asia, South Asia and West Asia, and bordering China, is an important strategic place, the west of Afghanistan is Iran, you can also through the strategic position of Afghanistan, to contain Iran Besides, Afghanistan is an important strategic hub in Central Asia.

The establishment of military power in Afghanistan is an important step in global hegemony, which can be strengthened, and the power in the Middle East can be strengthened, and only Russia and China are also necessary in the war on terror, and the former Soviet Union has also invaded Afghanistan, bordering West Asia, Kuwait, and Iraq's oil stones are coveted by the West, and oil can affect a country.

and the world.

Because to get the mouth of the Indian Ocean!

Then you can control the world economy and energy lifeline!

1. Amin ** wanted to get rid of the Soviet Union's control, and the Soviet Union wanted to solve the Afghan problem once and for all.

2. It wants to gain access to the Indian Ocean through the Belochistan region of Afghanistan and Pakistan, and then control the Persian Gulf.

3. The United States at this time was busy resolving the Iranian hostage crisis, providing excellent conditions for the USSR.

The British Empire once dominated the world, but in the end it failed to take Afghanistan, and there are three main reasons - unjust war.

Unjust wars

In fact, France and Britain have always been the two hegemons in Europe, and it is self-evident that their politics are not suitable, in other words, they both want to suppress each other's politics and make the other side subordinate to themselves and obey themselves. In fact, neither of these two countries has absolute power to destroy the other, so political discord is a trigger for their war! And this time Britain invaded Afghanistan, France also knew that France did not support Britain's invasion of Afghanistan from a political standpoint, because the occupation of Afghanistan is an unjust act!

Britain was interfered with by France

Although Britain and France belong to the same capitalist countries, their ideologies are different. In other words, the higher degree of capitalism at that time belonged to Britain, because Britain had invaded most of the colonies in Asia and America, so Britain was more economically powerful, and at the same time, France was also Louis intellectual, he also wanted to develop the economy very much, so he was able to plunder the wealth of Britain. France has long heard about the war of aggression in Afghanistan, so it is impossible for France to let Britain easily take Afghanistan, so all kinds of obstructions to Britain!

Stubborn resistance in Afghanistan

It should be said that the war of the British invasion of Afghanistan lasted for a very long time, and if the front was too long, the British economic supply would not be able to keep up, and the economy could not keep up with the opportunity to give Afghanistan the opportunity to turn over, so Afghanistan ** also took advantage of this opportunity to stubbornly resist the British, and even beat the British out of Europe, so the British did not win the war!

One is because of the stubborn resistance in Afghanistan, and the other is because there are other countries that have kept Britain at bay.

Afghanistan itself has always attracted the attention of European and American countries, and the United States has been trying to manipulate Afghanistan, and Britain's invasion of Afghanistan will naturally provoke the United States, so he will not succeed.

Because expeditions to Afghanistan are very military and the climate in Afghanistan is difficult to adapt.

The times are different, the previous strong does not mean the current strong, and whether the war is won or lost has a lot to do with the environment, the ratio of personnel, and the military spending that the country is willing to spend.

Although Afghanistan is a small country, its people have experienced a hundred battles and have very strong fighting capabilities, which should not be underestimated.

The reason why the British Empire, which conquered the world, did not completely annex its colonies was because if it swallowed, it would kill itself.

It's not that the British Empire doesn't want to completely annex their colonies, it's because they can't manage the people in these places, so that's it.

The colony is too big to swallow, and the culture and history of the British are different, and after the development of the family, the first thing to fight is the United Kingdom, and the British dare not have the ability.

This is the brilliance of Britain, which on the one hand scatters the seeds of its own country all over the world, and on the other hand, ensures the purity of its own country.

The British mainland is located in the northwest corner of Europe, while the colonies are all on other continents, thousands of miles away from the mainland, and the distance is far away, which seriously affects the projection and release of Britain's influence on the colonies. Its colonies are all thousands of miles away from other continents, and this long distance greatly hinders the communication between its headquarters and its colonies. As a result, even if Britain has a highly developed civilization, if it wants to use it as a base to project influence on the colonies, the effect will inevitably be greatly reduced, and stability and sustainability cannot be guaranteed.

He should not have such a strong management ability, and the countries in the world will not obey his management.

It is true that the territory is too large. And a lot of them are colonies. However, the strength of the empire itself is very limited, so it can't control these places. So there is no time to take care of it.

It is because its territory is very large, but the population is very small, and there are no people to grow some crops, so it has declined.

Britain declined after World War II, and it consumed so much power in World War II that it was no longer able to control its colonies after the war ended, so it declined.
