	Kunar - LoveToKnow 1911
		KUNAR, a river and valley of Afghanistan, on the north-west frontier of British India.
		The Kunar valley (Khoaspes in the classics) is the southern section of that great river system which reaches from the Hindu Kush to the Kabul river near Jalalabad, and which, under the names of Yarkhun, Chitral, Kashkar, andc., is more extensive than the Kabul basin itself.
		The lower reaches of the Kunar are wide and comparatively shallow, the river meandering in a multitude of channels through a broad and fairly open valley, well cultivated and fertile, with large flourishing villages and a mixed population of Mohmand and other tribes of Afghan origin.
