7. HISTORY
Pakistan was the site of several ancient cultures including the
neolithic Mehrgrh and the bronze era Indus Valley Civilisation.
The area has remained a part of numerous empires and dynasties
including the Indian empires, Persian empires, Arab
caliphates, Mongol, Mughal, Durrani Empire, Sikh and British
Empire.
The city of Taxila became a major centre of learning in ancient
times—the remains of the city, located to the west of
Islamabad, are one of the country's major archaeological sites.
In 711 CE, the Arab general Muhammad bin Qasim conquered Sindh
and Multan in southern Punjab.
The Pakistan government's official chronology has stated Muhammad
bin Qasim's conquest of the region as the point where the
"foundation" of Pakistan was laid.

8. -REASONS FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT :
• Muslims did not wanted to live under the rules of British Government
anymore.
• Muslims of the South Asia required a separate Muslim state where they
can freely practice the laws of Islam.
• Muslims of the subcontinent had been pushed backward in the field of
education through out the 200 years of the British Government.
• The hatred among the Muslims and the Hindus had grown worse and a
large number of both and the British soldiers were killed in such event of
rebellions and civil disobedience.

9. -PROBLEMS DURING ESRABLISHMENT :
• The “TWO NATION THEORY”, forwarded by Quaid-e-Azam was rejected and
opposed by Mahatma Gandhi.
• Congress never wanted to split the land.
• Congress was a large party at that time and it’s rejection for the separate Muslim
state had caused the Muslims to put even more efforts to make the British
government realize the need of an independent state.
• Even the British did not wanted to divide the state and wanted to keep the hold on
the continent.
• Muslims of the south-Asia only got the help of the Hindus to make the British
government to realize that they need to leave the continent, but after that Hindu
leaders were planning on ruling the state side by side with Muslims which seemed
impossible through the role of congress in all those years.
