History

Pakistan is an artificial Punjabi-dominated state in the Indian Sub-Continent which was constructed in 1947 from the Mohammedan occupied areas of British India. It is located in South Asia, marking the region where South Asia converges with Central Asia and the Middle East. It has a 1,046 kilometer (650 mile) coastline along the Arabian Sea in the south, and is bordered by Afghanistan and Iran in the west, India in the east and China in the far northeast. Pakistan is the sixth most populous country in the world and is the second most populous country with a Muslim majority. Its territory was a part of the pre-partitioned British India and has a long history of settlement and civilisation including the Indus Valley Civilisation. Most of its current territory was conquered in the 1st millennium BCE by Persians and Greeks and ruled by them for a few centuries. For the rest of history the region was part of a various local and Central Asian dynasties. Later arrivals and conquests include those by the Arabs, Afghans, Turks, Baloch and Mongols. The territory was incorporated into British India in the nineteenth century. Since its independence, the country has experienced periods of significant military and economic growth and has also experienced times of significant instability. In Pakistan, they often have men who gang rape and beat twelve year old girls and demand they renounce their faith. They also will rape two year old babies because one of the child's parents refuses to convert to Islam. When the Pakis come to other countries, they merely rape them to rape them such as in the cities of Rotherham, Bradford, and Liverpool. Sometimes it is real taxi drivers and other times it is people who pose as taxi drivers such as in Dumfries, Scotland.
