Pakistan is one of the biggest Muslim states in the world today. The country emerged out of the Indian sub-continent on the map of the world in 1947. The country has a majority of muslim population. Pakistan celebrates its independence on the 14th of August every year.

The word ‘Pakistan’ has been coined from the names of those regions that make up this nation - Punjab, Afgan Border States, Kashmir, Sind and Baluchistan. Even after 1947, Pakistan remained a dominion for nine years. It was only on the 23rd of March, 1956, that the country was declared an Islamic Republic. East Pakistan broke away and proclaimed sovereignty of the Republic of Bangladesh in 1971.

Today, the nation comprises of the major provinces - Sind, Baluchistan, Punjab and the North West Frontier Province along with the Federal Capital and other tribal areas. The tribal areas coming under the government of Pakistan are Khyber, Kurram, Malakand, Mohmand, North Wazirstan and South Wazirstan. The capital city of the country is ‘Islamabad’.
..::..The National Anthem..::..
When Pakistan was created in 1947, the country did not have any national anthem. Then, in late 1949, it was announced that the late Shah of Iran was to pay a state visit to Pakistan (the first by any foreign head of state).

..::.. The National Flag..::..
Pakistani’s are very proud of the flag and display it everywhere. I was amazed at how many Pakistani flags I saw flying from private homes, even out in the country side.

..::..The Quaid’s Last Message On 14 August..::..
It was, therefore, with a sense of supreme satisfaction at the fulfillment of his mission that Jinnah told the nation in his last message on 14 Aug, 1948..
In accomplishing the task he had taken upon himself on the morrow of pakistan’s birth, Jinnah had worked himself to death, but he had, to quote Richard symons..
“Contributed more then any other man
to pakistan’s survival.”
He died on 11 september, 1948. How true was lord Pethick Lawrence, the former secretary of state of India, when he said..
“Gandhi died by the hands of an assassin,
Jinnah died by his devotion to Pakistan.”

Quaid-e-Azam give us the principle of Unity, Faith, and discipline to make Pakistan great..
“With faith, Discipline and Selfless devotion to duty,
there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve.”

A journey of 61 years, And still so many tears in so many eyes
But yet Pakistan smiles for this country is like a child whose innocence never dies.
Roshan mairi aankhon mein wafa k jo diye hain, sab taire liye hain..
