In terms of lessons to be learned from history, World War I remains a nearly unparalleled example of how not to do things. The origins and conduct of the war, as well as the major peace treaties ending the conflict, have become monuments to ineptitude. The circumstances surrounding the end of the war on the Austro-Italian front can take their rightful place in this panoply of bungling. Neither the Austrians in defeat nor the Italians in victory displayed attributes worthy of emulation, and, if anything is to be learned from these events, it is that haste to extricate oneself from a war can be as dangerous as haste to enter a war and that, contrary to popular belief, it takes two sides to make a peace.

US-led NATO forces overthrown the Taliban regime on 13 November 2001. The Taliban encountered severe blows from the US and allied forces, which constrained them to take shelter in the neighbouring countries, besides the hilly areas of Afghanistan (Afridi, Afridi, & Jalal, 2016). The region has witnessed a fierce fight between the Taliban and the NATO troops till 2010. Afterwards, a new phase in the Afghan conflict has begun; a progression of table talks and negotiations was initiated at various fronts. This particular research will focus on the dialogues, treaties, and negotiations among the conflicting parties to find a peaceful solution to the Afghan war.
