The Hindu Kush mountains, running northeast to southwest across the country, divide it into three major regions: 1) the Central Highlands, which form part of the Himalayas and account for roughly two thirds of the country's area; 2) the Southwestern Plateau, which accounts for one-fourth of the land; and 3) the smaller Northern Plains area, which contains the country's most fertile soil.
El Hindu Kush, que se extiende de nordeste a suroeste, divide el país en tres regiones principales: las montañas centrales, que representan aproximadamente dos tercios de su superficie; la meseta del sudoeste, que representa una cuarta parte, y el área más pequeña y llana del norte, que contiene el suelo más fértil del país.WikiMatrix WikiMatrix
