Afghanistan has held elections at various points throughout its modern history, though the continuity of electoral institutions has repeatedly been disrupted by changes of regime, civil war, and foreign occupation. Representative assemblies existed under the constitutional monarchy from the 1920s onward, and competitive elections were conducted under the Kingdom of Afghanistan from 1949 to 1969.
