Badghis

The following was originally from the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica. As such, it may not yet be properly adapted to Wikipedia (obsolete, typos, no accidental links, etc.). It is included as a stub of sorts to inspire you to fix these problems and modify it:

BADGHIS (“ home of the win.ds “),a district on the north-west 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 boundarycommission of 1885. Since that date it has been largely settled by the amir with purely Afghan tribes.
