History of Pakistan

 

Pakistan arose on the world map as a free sovereign state in August 1947 because of the division of the English Indian Domain. With a land area of 796,095 sq. km. [including FATA (Government Controlled Ancestral Regions) and FANA (Bureaucratic Regulated Northern Areas)], its population remains at almost 172.80 million, as per the 2008 Statistics. By and large, this is one of the oldest terrains known to man. Its urban communities thrived before Babylon was constructed; its kin rehearsed the craft of good living and citizenship before the praised old Greeks.

 

The locale traces its set of experiences back to no less than 2,500 years before Christ, when an exceptionally evolved civilization prospered in the Indus Valley. Unearthings at Harappa, Mohenjodaro, and Kot Diji have exposed proof of a high level of development thriving here even in most ancient times. Around 1,500 B.C., the Aryans vanquished this district and gradually drove the Hindu occupants further east, towards the Ganges Valley. Afterward, the Persians involved the northern districts in the fifth century B.C. The Greeks came in 327 B.C., under Alexander of Macedonia, and went through the district like a meteor. In 712 A.D., the Bedouins, driven by Mohammed Canister Qasim, landed someplace close to what is presently Karachi and administered the lower half of Pakistan for 200 years. During this time, Islam flourished and impacted the lives, cultures, and customs of the occupants of the district.

 

From the tenth century A.D. onwards, a precise victory of Indo-Pakistan by the Muslims from Focal Asia started and endured up to the eighteenth century A.D., when the English colonised the sub-landmass and controlled it for almost 200 years (for a considerable length of time over what is presently Pakistan). The Muslim restoration started towards the end of the last century when Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, a famous pioneer and educationist, sent off a development for the scholarly renaissance of the Indian Muslims. In 1930, the notable artist and thinker Dr. Mohammed Iqbal imagined the possibility of a different state for the Muslims of the sub-landmass, and in 1940, the All-India Muslim Association embraced the renowned Pakistan Goal.

 

Following seven years of untiring battle, under the splendid initiative of Quaid-e-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah, Pakistan arose on the world map as a sovereign state on August 14, 1947, when the English Indian Realm was divided into two free states: India and Pakistan.
