How much of pakistan was part of Afghanistan?

This is because of socio-political reasons more then anything else. The people of Upper Chitral (The Khow) have always traded almost exclusively north of the Hindukush. Even linguistically, Khowar (although a Dardic language) has many elements from the Ghalcha languages (Wakhi, Shugnani, Sarikoli etc.) Farsi was the language of the state and the educated class until the 1950's.

 

This is why Chitralis are so different from the other Dardic peoples, who remained far more isolated. As a result of this the Nuristanis (and even the Kalash) have more in common with the people of Diamer and Kohistan than with their neighbours the Khow.

 

It was only during the 1800's that the Chitrali State started interacting/trading with the Pashtuns of Kunar, Dir and Swat. Culturally, Pashtuns and Chitralis have little in common.

 

 

Some examples would be our music, cuisine (the the most famous dish of Chitral is Kalli or laghman as it is known as farther north) and dress (the Shuka), in the past all of these things were even more strongly indicative of Central Asian influence  but it is dminishing. Our upper classes no longer wear the the small Central Asian turbans and silken chappan robes, and few people speak Farsi.

 

 

The Uzbeks are not at all nomadic, the Uzbeks and Uyghurs are the only two completely non-nomadic groups in Central Asia.

 

By the way, even the traditional wedding jewelry of our women is of the same type as hers, incuding the headdress.

 

She's clearly Uzbek as the website states. 

 Almost all Altaic peoples lead nomadic lifestyles and own yurts.

 

Well Uzbek culture is somewhat influenced by Iranic cultures like Pashtun and Persian so that's maybe where you'll find a 'connection'.

 

But most of their culture, genetics & linguistics matches those of other Altaic nations. Azerbaijanis and Antatolians don't really count since they are mostly Altaic by language not by race or culture.
