HINDU KUSH REGION, AFGHANISTAN
45 miles (70 km) SSE
of Feyzabad, Afghanistan
NB: The region name is an automatically
generated name from the Flinn-Engdahl (F-E) seismic and geographical regionalization
scheme, proposed in 1965, defined in 1974 and revised in 1995. The boundaries
of these regions are defined at one-degree intervals and therefore differ
from irregular political boundaries. For example, F-E region 545 (Northern
Italy) also includes small parts of France, Switzerland, Austria and Slovenia
and F-E region 493 (Chesapeake Bay Region) includes all of the State of
Delaware, plus parts of the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania and Virginia. Beginning with January 2000, the 1995 revision
to the F-E code has been used in the QED and PDE listings. This revision
includes 28 additional regions, which were defined by subdividing larger
regions to provide better coverage for Northwest Africa, Southeast Asia
and seismic zones along oceanic ridges.
