		Bacha Saqao kept the throne for nine chaotic months while anarchy returned to the provinces until General Nadir Khan, hero of the War of Independence but lately in disenchanted retirement on the Riviera, gathered a tribal army and returned, with his brothers, to rescue Kabul in October 1929.
		Plenty of opposition still festered at home among some of the tribes; among King Amanullah's adherents who believed he, or at least a direct descendent of Amir Dost Mohammad, should be restored to the throne; among the still restless followers of Bacha Saqao; and among those whose power had been curtailed by the new regime.
		Their act spanked revolt among the Tajik of the Koh Daman, north of Kabul, led by Habibullah Ghazi, called Bacha Saqao, Son of a Water Carrier, who took possession of Kabul in January, 1929.
