Which one of the following is the second largest ethnic group in Afghanistan ?

  • A.Pashtun
  • B.Tajik
  • C.Hazara
  • D.Baloch

Answer: B

The second largest ethnic group in Afghanistan is the Tajik.

No full census has been taken, but common estimates put the Pashtuns at around 40 per cent of the population, the Tajiks at roughly a quarter, and the Hazaras and Uzbeks next at around a tenth each. Tajiks are Persian (Dari) speakers concentrated in the north and west and in Kabul and Herat; Ahmad Shah Massoud was their best-known leader.

The Pashtuns are the largest group, not the second, which makes them the main trap. The Hazaras come third, and the Baloch are a small minority in the south.
