The Wakhi people are perhaps best known by their proximity to the Wakhan Corridor, which played a major role in eighteenth century politics between Russia and Great Britain. Today the Wakhi live in four countries: Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, and Tajikistan. Between 7,500 and 10,000 Wakhi live in the Goyal, Ishkoman, Chitral, and Yasin regions of Northern Pakistan, while approximately 7,000 Wakhi live along the Wakhandaryo, or Wakhan River, in Afghanistan.
