List of cities in Afghanistan
The only city in Afghanistan with over 1 million population is its capital, Kabul. The rest are smaller cities and towns.

Of this, around 6 million or so were reported to be living in urban areas and the rest in rural or countryside.
Economy of Afghanistan
Despite holding over $1 trillion in proven untapped mineral deposits, Afghanistan remains one of the least developed countries on the planet. About 35% of its population is unemployed or lives below the poverty line. Many of the unemployed men join the foreign-funded militant groups or the world of crime, particularly as smugglers. The Afghan government has long been pleading for foreign investment in order to grow and stabilize its economy.
