Which modern country is known as "The Graveyard of Empires"?

Afghanistan is known as the "graveyard of empires" because throughout history, numerous powerful nations have tried to conquer and control the country but have faced significant challenges and ultimately failed. From Alexander the Great to the British Empire and the Soviet Union, these empires have struggled to maintain control over Afghanistan due to its rugged terrain, resilient and fiercely independent people, and complex tribal dynamics. The country's history of successfully resisting foreign invasion has earned it the reputation of being a graveyard where empires go to die.
