Wakhi (ethnic group) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Wakhi people
The Wakhi people, or Khik (called Guhjali in upper Hunza, Pakistan), are an ethnic group in the Wakhan of today's Badakhshan region located in northeastern Afghanistan and southeastern Tajikistan. They also live in adjacent areas of Tajikistan, Xinjiang and in Pakistan, both in the Chitral District and in Gojal).〔Phillips, David J. (2001) ''Peoples on the Move: introducing the nomads of the world'' Piquant, Carlisle, (p. 271 ), ISBN 1-903689-05-8〕 They speak the Wakhi language. ==Population and demographics==
A very rough estimate puts the population of Wakhis between 70,000-100,000.〔Coates, Ken (2004). A global history of indigenous peoples: Struggle and survival. New York: Palgrave MacMillan, Isbn=1403939292〕〔West, Barbara (2008). Encyclopedia of the peoples of asia and oceania. Facts on File, Isbn=0816071098〕 The population is divided among four different countries: Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Pakistan, and Xinjiang in north-western China. In China the Wakhi are officially recognized as "Tajiks", in Afghanistan they are officially called "Pamiris", while in Tajikistan Wakhi are recognized by the state as Tajiks but also self-identify as Pamiris and in Pakistan they refer to themselves as "Pamiris" and Guhjali. The major religions of Wakhis are Nizari Ismaili Shia Muslim, being followers of the Aga Khan and Ethnic religions.〔〔Shahrani, M.
