How it ended, as its article says
Dissolved, 2001-12-07. Read from the article's section “lead” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.
The Islamic Emirate ceased to exist on 7 December 2001 after being overthrown by the Northern Alliance, which had been bolstered by the ISAF coalition established after a U.S.-led invasion of the country two months prior.

What led to it, and what came of it
The investigation's own picture: 2 causes the record names and 6 results, the strongest six of each at their own years, joined to the state by the kind of claim - a recorded statement solid, the article's sentence dashed, a theory dash-dot.
Open the investigation: every row with its evidence, the conditions at the time, the theories condition by condition, and the succession analysed.
