History of Pakistan (1947–present)

The history of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan began on 14 August 1947 when the country became an independent nation in the form of the Dominion of Pakistan within the British 

Commonwealth as a result of the Pakistan Movement and the partition of India. While the history of the Pakistani Nation according to the official timetable of the Pakistani government began with Islamic rule over the Indian subcontinent by Muhammad bin Qasim [1] who reached a high level during the Mughal Era. In 1947, Pakistan included Western Pakistan (modern-day Pakistan) and East Pakistan (modern-day Bangladesh). The President of the All-India Muslim League and later the Pakistan Muslim League, Muhammad Ali Jinnah became the Governor-General and the Secretary-General of the Muslim League, Liaquat Ali Khan became the Prime Minister.

The 1956 constitution made Pakistan a Muslim country.

Pakistan experienced a civil war and Indian military intervention in 1971 that led to the partition of East Pakistan as the new state of Bangladesh. The country also resolved world conflicts with India, which led to four wars. Pakistan was very close to the United States in the Cold War. In the war in Afghanistan with the Soviet Union, it supported the Sunni Mujahideens and played a key role in reducing the Soviet forces and forcing them out of Afghanistan. The country continues to face challenging challenges including terrorism, poverty, illiteracy, corruption and political instability. Terrorism caused by the Afghan war has severely damaged the country's economy and infrastructure since 2001-09 but Pakistan is still recovering.

Pakistan is a nuclear power and a declared nuclear regime, having conducted six nuclear tests in response to the five nuclear tests of the Republic of India that opposed it in May 1998. The first five tests were conducted on 28 May and the sixth 30 May. In this regard, Pakistan is the seventh in the world, the second in South Asia and the only in the world in the Islamic world. Pakistan also has the sixth largest military force in the world and spends most of its money on self-defense. Pakistan is a founding member of the OIC, SAARC and the Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition and a member of many international organizations including the UN, Shanghai Cooperation Organization, Commonwealth of Nations, ARF, Economic Cooperation Organization and many more .

Pakistan is a regional and medium-sized state that is counted among the world's emerging and leading economies and is supported by one of the world's fastest and fastest growing levels. It has a medium-sized economy and a well-integrated agricultural sector. It is one of the Eleven Eleven, a group of eleven countries that, together with the BRICs, had the greatest potential to become the world's largest economies in the 21st century. Many economists and think tanks suggest that by 2030 Pakistan will become the Asian Tiger and CPEC will play a key role in it. Geographically, Pakistan is also an important country and a source of communication between the Middle East, Central Asia, South Asia and East Asia.
