see a tiny flicker of light in the restructuring of their government. In 2001, Afghan political dignitaries, that were in opposition of the Taliban, held a forum to discuss how to form a legitimate and self- sustaining government for Afghanistan. With assistance from the United Nations, the Afghan figures agreed on a plan in developing a new Afghanistan government. (Youngblood-Coleman, 2011).
In 2004 Afghanistan agreed upon In December 2004, Afghanistan conquered a milestone by holding their very first democratic elections. Elected by the people of Afghanistan, after serving two years as interim President, Hamid Karzai was elected into office as the official president of Afghanistan. He was to serve a term of five years. Approximately 8, 0000 citizens registered to vote that year, with many of the existing votes coming from women. (Youngblood-Coleman, 2010)
In 2009, even though he was very much disliked, Karzai was again elected as President to carry out another five years in office. The reconstruction process of Afghanistan has been a long and arduous battle. With corruption still ongoing and favoritism well-established, there are still many years of hardship ahead.
Currently, the Government of Afghanistan holds three branches of government (Executive, Legislative and Judicial). Each branch allegedly holds equal authority over the constitution. Who should decide constitutional differences are a constant disagreement between the parties. Another factor that plays with the demise of the Afghanistan government is the sincerity of the government leaders themselves.

Many feel that the enormous foreign aid donated to the government in Kabul was not dispersed evenly throughout the country.

They also feel that the Afghan forces that their government and the U.S. forces have helped build, are virtually worthless due to their unethical and contaminated ways. (Nelson, 2012)
To try and contemplate a quick resolve to every conflict facing Afghanistan would be unreasonable. With the withdrawal of NATO forces in 2012 and other foreign armed forces leaving in 2014, the fate of the Afghanistan nation remains unclear. With a population close to 30 million and an unstable history that lacks any kind of solid leadership, not to mention the fact of the insurgence lurking prominently on the Afghanistan/Pakistan borders, it is hard to believe a positive outcome holds true for this country.
For Afghanistan to prosper and have any type of secure resolutions, many events will have to take place. A number of people believe that for a cohesive government to exist, Trust will have to be established by everyone. Right now, there is such a lack of trust, starting with the local farmer believing that the government has failed him and promised aid has not been received, up to the executive level of the Presidency, and his doubt of support. The country and citizens, as a whole, will have to rely on each other. There is no way around it. Of course, many citizens would disagree and tell you this is impossible to do because of past history and the enormous amount of corruption.
This leads us to ponder on the third and very necessary change for Afghanistan to succeed as a country, corruption. Corruption is undeniable and run
