  AllRefer.com - Waziristan (Pakistan And Bangladesh Political Geography) - Encyclopedia
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.
