 | | An extremely arid and mountainous region, it is divided into N Waziristan, inhabited by farming Wazir tribes, and S Waziristan, populated by seminomad Mahsuds. |
 | | The two tribes, both of Pathan descent, have constant blood feuds and supplement their meager incomes by brigandage. |
 | | In S Waziristan the hills are used for grazing, and forests on the higher slopes provide timber. |
