The '''Taliban''' (Pashto: طالبان‎, ''ṭālibān'' "students") is an Afghanistan-based Islamic fundamentalist terrorist organization founded by former mujahideen commanders [[Mohammed Omar]] and [[Abdul Ghani Baradar]] in 1994. 

Considered to be one of the most dangerous terrorist organizations in the world, the Taliban have spent a majority of their existence fighting for the goal of turning Afghanistan into a jihadist state. They ruled the country from 1996 to 2001 before being overthrown by NATO forces at the beginning of the [[War in Afghanistan]], but returned to power in 2021.
