Try reading about Kafiristan, where primitive Hinduism (think Rig Veda) survived for 3500 years before being wiped out in the 1890s by a British-appointed Islamic despot.
- gaiagraphia 3mo agoAlways amazed me how the Kalash in Chitral Valley have managed to peacefully get on with things. I guess the terrain helps. I always like to think how the region would've looked if all these remnants of peoples had thriving nations.
