A series of three wars between the United Kingdom and Afghanistan in the 19th century and early 20th century was formerly called the Afghan Wars but is now referred to as the Anglo-Afghan wars perhaps to distinguish them from the civil strife in the 1980s.

- First Anglo-Afghan War (from 1839 to 1842)
- Second Anglo-Afghan War (from 1878 to 1881)
