Afghan
From the Khyber
Afghan refers to anything from Afghanistan—its people, culture, or languages: Afghan refugees, Afghan cuisine.
As a noun, an Afghan is a person from Afghanistan.
The term covers the country's diverse ethnic groups, though it's sometimes associated specifically with Pashtuns. (Lowercase afghan is a type of blanket.)
