It was a pleasant evening in Northern Afghanistan's bustling and rapidly growing city.
Mazar-i-Sharif was the crossroads of trade flowing between the UAT and its neighbors, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, by facilitating truck haulers utilizing the new national highway system.
The city had been the center of war, violence, and human rights violations during the occupation of the Taliban because of its strategic location.
The prosperity experienced by the locals was largely thanks to the heroics of the Uzbek Horse Warlord, General Dostum, who was now both the ethnic tribal leader of Uzbek Afghans and Governor of Mazar-i-Sharif.
Dostum was famous for assisting United States forces in pushing back the enemy in 2001. He continued his military service by supporting President Karzai's reforms and Future Tech's local interests, such as the UAT military's modernization.
