Here is the list...

BASED IN NORTH INDIA
1) Khilji Empire of Delhi (a Pashtun empire founded by Jalal ad-Din Firuz Ghilzai which ruled over large parts of South Asia between 1290 and 1320 from its capital near Delhi)
2) Lodi Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Bahlul Lodi which ruled over most of India and Pakistan between 1451 to 1526)
3) Sur Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Sher Shah Suri which ruled over North India, Pakistan and parts of Afghanistan between 1540 to 1557)

BASED IN BENGAL
1) First Khilji Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Ikhtiyar ad-Din Muhammad Ghilzai which ruled over Bengal and parts of East and North India between 1204 and 1227)
2) Muhammad Shahi Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Muhammad Shah Sur which ruled over Bengal and parts of East and North India between 1554 and 1564)
3) Karlani Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Taj Shah Karlani which ruled over Bengal and parts of East and North India between 1564 and 1576)

BASED IN KASHMIR
1) Shahmiri Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Shams ad-Din Shahmir Swati which ruled over Kashmir and parts of Tibet and North India between 1339 and 1561)

BASED IN IRAN
1) Hotak Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Mirwais Hotak which at its peak ruled over Iran, Afghanistan and northwestern Pakistan and existed between 1709 and 1738)
2) Azad Empire (a Pashtun empire founded by Azad Shah Afghan which ruled over northwestern and northern Iran and parts of southwestern Turkmenistan, eastern Kurdistan and southern Caucasus between 1752 and 1757)

BASED IN AFGHANISTAN
1) Ghori Empire
2) Hotak Empire (its first capital was Kandahar, Afghanistan, but it was later shifted to Isfahan, Iran)
3) Durrani Empire

Of course, the above list only covers empires founded by Pashtuns after their ethnogenesis in the medieval period.

It doesn't include pre-Islamic empires founded by Central Asian/Euroasian Scythians, Kushans, Hephthalites and other Aryan tribes ancestor to modern Pashtuns.

It also doesn't include early Islamic empires, e.g. 1) Saffarid Empire from south Afghanistan's Sakastan region which is considered a homeland to southern Pashtun tribes; 2) Samanid Empire from north Afghanistan's Bakhtar region whose founder Saman Khuda was a Bactrian (an Old Pashto dialect)-speaking convert from Zoroastrianism to Islam.

The empires listed are Pashtuns, even if not Pashto-speaking. Unfortunately, instead of Pashto, these empires adopted Farsi as their court and literary language because Farsi was used as a commonly spoken lingua franca throughout eastern Islamic lands because of its strong association with Islam in the eastern region, just as Arabic was used as a lingua franca in the rest of the Islamic lands from Iraq westwards to the Maghreb and North Africa and (until 1492) Al-Andalus.

The Samanids were Sogdhians not Bactrian.

The Samanids were Sogdhians not Bactrian.

How? Sogdian was spoken north of the Oxus River in Sogdiana (Uzbekistan and Tajikistan) until 1000 CE, not in Bakhtar. Even now it exists as Yaghnobi dialects buy now the Sogdian-speaking area is shrunk to Yaghnob Valley and other small pockets in Tajikistan's Sughd Province.

The Samanids were native to ancient Balkh, Bakhtar (not Sogdiana). Their founder Saman Khuda spoke Bactrian, the main language south of the Oxus River at the time and a main Old Pashto (locally called simply "Aryan language") dialect. However, the Samanids were the first to introduce Sunni Islam as the main religion, Farsi as a lingua franca and Arabic as a literary language to Afghanistan and Central Asia.

No the Samanids were not Bactrian but Sogdihan and far as I know, Saman khuda spoke Persian not Bactrian. They originally crossed the Amu Darya from Tajikistan into Balkh, that's why there are a lot of Tajiks in the north because their descended of the samanids. Bactrian (old Pashto) is the language of Pashtuns, not Tajiks. And caliphate Arabs introduced Islam to Afghans along with Mahmud Ghaznavi.

I had to also add Shahmiri Empire of Kashmir founded in 1339 by Shams ad-Din Shahmir Swati, a member of the Gebri clan of the Swati tribe.

Samanids were Tajiks

^No one is denying they weren't.
