Hazara People - Hazara Tribes

Hazara Tribes

The Hazara people have been organized by various tribes. The daizangi are the largest tribe, representing 57.2% of the Hazara population. However, more recently and since the inclusion of the Hazaras into the "Afghan state", tribal affiliations have been disappearing and former tribal names Sheikh Ali, Jaghori, Ghaznichi, Behsoodi, Uruzgani, and Daiznagi are also disappearing. The different Hazara tribes come from regions such as Parwan, Bamyan, and Ghazni.
