    Does anybody know if there is a similar graphic available for Afghanistan?

    The only problem I have with this one is it’s too damn big–I’d love to find some place you could order it as a poster.

    Don’t know if there is one for Afghanistan.

    But you can also get poster-sized printing locally at Kinkos or Aztec Printing. You can take the image into them on a disk or USB drive for printing.
