Ahmad Shah Durrani is credited with the formation of a "Proto-Afghanistan", which was initially based primarily on [[Pashtuns|Pashtun]] tribal authority through a conquest state based on tribute exaction (plunder and the redistribution of said loot). Power over Pashtun tribes was negotiated through benefits like these. Durrani had a [[cavalry]] of roughly 6,000 core soldiers who had free land and titles.
His mausoleum is located in the southern Afghan city of [[Kandahar]], adjacent to the mosque where [[Muhammad]] the Prophet's sacred cloak is kept as memorabilia. It is not [[worship]]ed.
