Re: Pakistani's have a crisis of identity?
how exactly was it hindustan?
Before the Mughals, it was a bunch of independent kingdoms with a large one dominating central India and with the South and Bengal and Sri Lanka being seperate kingdoms and Arabs controlling what is today Pakistan
Mughals ruled India from 12th Century until 1750
After that British ruled India from 1750 till 1947
Hindustan is an English word created during the British Raj to describe their colony in India and later used by Jinnah
The whole land used to be called HIND ..
by the way.... Mughal ruled until 1857 though they has started losing the land way before that.
