Pakistan is a large country in South Asia. Located along the Arabian Sea, it is surrounded by Afghanistan to the west and northwest, Iran to the southwest, India to the east, and China to the northeast. It is located along some of the most famous ancient trade routes of the Khyber and Bolan, which strides between Central Asia and South Asia. Its capital is Islamabad. The history of Pakistan goes all the way back to the beginning of human civilization in South Asia. Pakistan is home to the Indus Valley civilisation, which is amongst the oldest in the world.
Pakistan is unique among Muslim countries, as it is the only country to have been created in the name of Islam. As a result of the Pakistan Movement led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah and the subcontinent’s struggle for independence, Pakistan was created in 1947 as an independent nation for Muslims from the regions in the east and west of the Subcontinent where there was a Muslim majority. Pakistan is unsurprisingly, one of the biggest Muslim countries in the world.
