"The Hazaras" Different Generation

The Hazaras

The Hazaras are arguably the hardest working generation in the work force of the past, although their approach to work is very different from of their older counterparts. The Hazaras are a Persian specking ethnic group native and primarily residing in the Hazarajat region in Central Afghanistan and generally scattered throughout Afghanistan. 

 The Hazaras (Persian: هزاره‎, romanizedHazāra; Hazaragi: آزره‎, romanized: Āzra) are a Persian-speaking ethnic group native to, and primarily residing in the Hazarajat region in central Afghanistan and generally scattered throughout Afghanistan. They speak the Hazaragi dialect of Persian which is mutually intelligible with Dari, one of the two official languages of Afghanistan.

They are one of the largest ethnic groups in Afghanistan,[19][20][21][22] and are also significant minority groups in neighbouring Pakistan, where there is a population of between 650,000 and 900,000, mostly in Quetta,[23][5] and as well as in Iran about 500,000.[6] Hazaras are considered by some to be one of the most vulnerable groups in Afghanistan,[24] and their persecution has occurred various times across previous decades.
