__NOTOC__
 
'''Kabul''' (käbool, kbool), capital and largest city of [[Capital Of::Directory:Afghanistan|Afghanistan]] with population of [[Population:=1780000|1,780,000]] (1999/2000 UN est.), is an economic and cultural center and strategically situated in a narrow valley along the Kabul River high in the mountains before the Khyber Pass. Kabul is linked with the Tajikistan border via a tunnel under the Hindu Kush Mountains. Its main products include ordnance, cloth, furniture, and beet sugar, though continual warfare since 1979 has limited the economic productivity of the city.
