Nuristan Province
Nuristan, also spelled Nurestan or Nooristan, (Nuristani/Dari: نورستان) is one of the 34 provinces of Afghanistan, located in the eastern part of the country. It is divided into seven districts and has a population of about 140,900.〔 Parun serves as the provincial capital.
It was formerly known as Kafiristan (, "land of the infidels") until the inhabitants were forcibly converted to Islam in 1895, and thence the region has become known as Nuristan ("land of light").
The primary occupations are agriculture, animal husbandry, and day labor. Located on the southern slopes of the Hindu Kush mountains in the northeastern part of the country, Nuristan spans the basins of the Alingar, Pech, Landai Sin, and Kunar rivers. Nuristan is bordered on the south by Laghman and Kunar provinces, on the north by Badakhshan province, on the west by Panjshir province, and on the east by Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.
