The monarchy lasted for 40 years, and the current republic has been in place for the past two decades. <\/strong>The Afghan government has often emphasized the need to preserve the republic when it comes to peace efforts. But what is a republic, and to what extent does the Afghan government live up to the ideal? \u201cRule of law, people\u2019s commitment to law and the commitment of the government to the law and to providing balanced services are elements of the republic,\u201d said Hadi Miran, an international affairs analyst. \u201cWe have had comprehensive achievements in different sectors in the last 20 years, especially in youth and women\u2019s rights, among other areas,\u201d said Khadija Ilham, an MP from Kapisa.\u00a0The emphasis on the republic has been one of the main and much-debated topics between the Afghan government and the Taliban in the last six months.\u00a0\u201cAll issues are handled based on the people\u2019s will, in a republic. That is why it\u2019s important. The right to run for election and to hold elections are also implemented under the republic,\u201d presidential spokesman Dawa Khan Menapal said.\u00a0In 43 countries in the Muslim world, governments are established based on the people\u2019s vote. Of these, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan and Mauritania&#8211;a country in Africa&#8211;have Islamic republic governments and 39 others call themselves republics.\u00a0Aisha Nori, a member of an artistic group in Kabul who plays guitar and works with children said the republic in the last 20 years has provided an opportunity for girls in the country.\u00a0\u201cWe have the right to be free and the right to make choices in our life. We can work freely,\u201d Noori said.\u00a0Noori works at an organization that seeks to raise awareness among children and youth, and she said that recently she ran a book-reading campaign for peace in some provinces of the country.\u00a0\u201cWe want to encourage them (the young) to study and further recognize their responsibility,\u201d said Abdul Muqeet Aryanfar, head of the Peroozi Support and Empowerment Organization.\u00a0This comes as the US in a draft peace plan has proposed the establishment of an interim government to move the reconciliation process forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(TOLO News): The Islamic republic system has been the longest-running political system in the country after the end of the absolute monarchy led by King Mohammad Zahir.
