How Pakistan Was Born

Pakistan has only been a country for some 75 years. In this short but eventful period, its hostile relationship with neighbouring India has become a key feature of its national identity. The roots of this lie in the end of British rule on the subcontinent, a period that was punctuated by religious strife between Muslims and Hindus. It is within the context of those tense years of inter-communal tension that we can track the establishment of Pakistan. Two communities that had lived side by side for hundreds of years were now ripped apart by European imperialism and Nationalism, as the Partition gave birth to a new nation for the Muslims of India. Under the leadership of its emblematic leader, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, Pakistan secured independence, with the promise of becoming a beacon of light for Muslims of the subcontinent.
