Bangladesh used to be a province of Pakistan and there was a separatist movement in it which got flared due to some political tensions.\n\nIt got independence from Pakistan in 1971 and had some strained relations for few years but this was all solved in 1974 and since then both are good friendly countries with several trade and other exchanges taking place

It is.\n\nBritish started it when the reserved constituencies on this basis. then we got 2 large chunks of our country(east Pakistan ,now Bangladesh and west Pakistan) reserved only for one group, Muslims. British played the game to break feeling of unity and use different groups as suited to play politics. So is the game of our politicians. Do not forget these are the leaders who got trained under British.

There r number of problems actually. First, its communication & media. Pakistan lack possitive media coverage. Pakistan Army has great acheivements in UN,..in Bosnia etc, even admitted in the movie Black Hawk, but these acheivents against terrerist acts usually get no media coverage. For example Pakistan army is the largest alloy in a field war in search of Osama & his men & probably they loose m,ost lives too.... we dont usually hear that in news. In recent earth quake pakistan failed to comminicate with outer world how devastating the quake was. \n\nInstead what we hear in news r the rare cases of rapes & tortures that do happen in some remote areas as Pakistan is a huge county & with so many uneducated ppl. But where on earth rapes dont happen? \n\nIronically Pakistan itself have been victim of terrorist acts by sucide bombers and other bcos it is helping in war against terror. Usually it doesnt get a sympathetic news coverage but unsafe place. \n\nAnother problem is, bcos it is a poor country many uneducated ppl try to leave the country for finding better opportunities, these ppl some times get into wrong hands & end up representing Pakistan as such. Similarly often some terrorists have been linked to pakistan in one way or the other, in most cases maybe bcos pakistan is a bordering country to the afghans where osama used to be & might be.\n\nPakistani officials r not strong enough to handle some internal issues neither better in convincing the outer world.

The name of the country Pakistan has a fascinating history - it is essentially an acronym.\n\nPrior to 1947, the country now known as Pakistan was a British colony. In 1947 the United Kingdom granted independence to the region under a new name, Pakistan. The name had been developed by a group of students at Cambridge University who issued a pamphlet in 1933 called Now or Never. They came up with the term "Pakistan" as "composed of letters taken from the names of our homelands: that is, Punjab, Afghania [North-West Frontier Province], Kashmir, Iran, Sindh, Tukharistan, Afghanistan, and Balochistan. It means the land of the Paks, the spiritually pure and clean."\n\nAlthough the suffix "stan" means country in Hindi and Persian, the students were able to fit the names of homelands to create an appropriate country name

In the spring of 1999, Pakistani Army and Kashmiri guerillas occupied the vacant Indian Army posts atop the mountains and after it was discovered by Indians it led to a limited war. After months of military fighting and diplomatic intervention, troops on the pakistani side retreated leaving kargil back to India. It was seen as a political failure in pakistan for the capitulation of captured territory back to India, while the Indians claimed it as a military victory.\n\nLosses are always a guesstimate in the subcontinent wars, but as per official records, Indians lost 600 men while Pakistan may have lost close to 1,000. Former PM of Pakistan Nawaz Sharif however claims that 4,000 pakistanis died - a figure backed up by another pakistani party (PPP) headed by an ex-PM Benazir Bhutto.

What an odd question!\nWhen the subcontinent of India slammed into the Eurasian land mass, millions of years ago, forming the Himalayas, the Indian subcontinent was longer than it is wide.\nOddly, before Pakistan was split off in 1947, India was wider than it is long.  If you add Pakisan and Bangledesh (originally East Pakistan) you can see what I mean.

They were together at one point but because of religious differences (India is Hindu and Pakistan is Muslim mainly) they were split (actually Afghanistan was also part of the country).  It was under British control.  When Britain removed themselves it was put into 3 separate countries.  Yes Kashmir is a disputed area between them and will always be.  I think it is both of their Achilles heel in moving up from 3rd world countries.

well when media protrays the other country as a mortal enemy - like in the movie Border - it can't make the two countries closer...so media can sway Indo Pak relations...remember when the two countries were about to go to war, the media was so forceful about the devastating issue - that things got sorted out pretty fast.\n\nSo yes Media has a big role

The part of Asia referred to as South Asia is divided from the rest of Asia both in north and south. Towards the north, it is divided by the Great Mountain wall consisting of the Himalayan Ranges and some other smaller hill ranges running parallel to each other and all of them arise from the Pamir knot.\n\nTowards the south it is divided by the Water bodies consisting of Bay of Bengal, Arabian Sea, and the Indian Ocean.

India is more powerful than Pakistan in terms of military might. India has almost double the manpower and combat equipment as a previous poster has pointed out. But today, military might cannot be solely measured in terms of numbers. There are more factors that come into play.\nFor eg: Though India has a very large military, they have 3 hostile borders to defend (Pakistan, China and Bangladesh). So its large army's resources are stretched. Even if there's a conflict with Pakistan, India just cannot afford to dedicate its entire army to the conflict, it still has to maintain reasonable force levels at the Chinese and Bangla borders. Pakistan on the other hand, can dedicate almost all resources to the conflict with India. Iran and Afghanistan are not about to invade them from the other side and the Chinese are their best pals. They even share nuclear weapons technology clandestinely. So you see how..... though India's military is larger, Pakistan can match them almost equally if you consider the above.\nNow lets look at another angle.... the economies! Here, India wins hands down. Their economy can sustain a war for much longer than Pakistan. Pakistan just does not have the resources to withstand and sustain a war effort for long. If the Indian Navy were to blockade Karachi harbour, Pakistan would probably run out of oil within a month.\nAnyways, there are just too many such factors. If you look at the overall picture, India will still win any conflict with Pakistan... but eventually... as in, it may not be a cake-walk.

First of all, I'm Pakistani, and I find the fact that you said no one cares very offensive. It's because when Pakistan became independent from India, India wanted to fight back so they took over Kashmir, which is a PAKISTANI province, even India agrees to that. So, it's basically conflict over that, and I don't blame India, they want land, every country does.
