Pakistan- Land Of The Pure

History
The history of Pakistan encompasses the history of the region
constituting modern Pakistan. Prior to independence in 1947,
the land that is now Pakistan was ruled in different periods by
local kings and numerous imperial powers. The ancient history
of the region comprising present-day Pakistan also includes
some of the oldest empires of South Asia and some of its major
civilizations. By the 18th century the land was incorporated
into British India. Pakistan's political history began with
the birth of the All India Muslim League in 1906 to protect
"Muslim interests, amid neglect and under-representation" and
to oppose Congress and growing Indian nationalism in return
the British Rule would decide to grant local self-rule.
On 29 December 1930, philosopher Sir Muhammad
Iqbal called for an independent new state in
"northwestern India for Indian Muslims". The
League rose to popularity in the late
1930s. Muhammad Ali Jinnah espoused the Two
Nation Theory and led the League to adopt
the Lahore Resolution of 1940, demanding the
formation of independent states in the East and the
West of British India. Eventually, a successful
movement led by Jinnah gained independence from
the British, on 14 August 1947.
