After declaring the country's independence, King Amanullah Khan undertook various reforms in various sectors. 

In December 1927, he embarked on a six-month journey to several European countries and other nations. Upon his return to Afghanistan, he implemented several reforms.

The convening of the Loya Jirga and the approval of the first constitution, the abolition of slavery, the establishment of a constitutional monarchy, the separation of powers, compulsory education, financial system reforms, the prohibition of forced labor, sending a number of students abroad for further studies, the establishment of the first public library in Kabul, and a significant increase in journalism were among the most important actions taken by King Amanullah Khan.

"He was able to enact the constitution in Afghanistan, which is truly a source of pride. King Amanullah was the one who included education in the constitution," Legal expert Abdul Shukoor Dadras said.

Meanwhile, the reforms of King Amanullah Khan did not align with the spirit of the people, leading to uprisings against him, including by Habibullah Kalakani. As a result, Amanullah Khan abdicated and left for Italy.

One hundred and five years ago today, King Amanullah Khan of Afghanistan fought against British forces on three fronts and declared the country's independence from Britain by signing the Treaty of Rawalpindi.

In his first actions after declaring the country's independence, King Amanullah Khan signed friendship treaties with the Soviet Union, Britain, Turkey, and Iran.

"In addition to recognizing our independence, the Soviet Union offered that King Amanullah Khan sign economic, political, military, and other agreements with them," military affairs expert Abdul Wahed Taqat said.

Meanwhile, following the declaration of the country's independence, the 28th of Asad (August 18) is annually commemorated as Afghanistan's Independence Day from Great Britain.
