History of pakistan

Prior to creation as a modern state in 1947, the area of modern Pakistan was both ruled by local kings and under numerous imperial power throughout different time periods. The ancient history of the region comprising present-day Pakistan also includes some of the oldest empires from the subcontinent and some of its major civilizations.By the 18th century the land was incorporated into British India The political history of the nation 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 Raj would decide to grant local self-rule. On 29 December 1930, Muhammad Allama Iqbal called for an autonomous new state in "northwestern India for Indian Muslims.The League rose to popularity in the late 1930s.Muhammad Ali Jinnah espoused the 2 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 united Pakistan with its wings – West Pakistan and East Pakistan – gained independence from the British, on 14 August 1947. After a civil war, the Bengal region of  East Pakistan, separated at a considerable distance from the rest of Pakistan, became the independent state of Bangladesh in 1971.
The first constituent assembly of Pakistan passed the Objective resolution on March 12, 1949.The resolution, proposed by the first P.M,Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan, proclaimed that the future constitution of Pakistan would not be modelled entirely on a European pattern, but on the ideology and democratic faith of Islam.Pakistan declared itself as an Islamic republic on adoption of a constitution in 1956, but the civilian rule was stalled by the 1958 military coup d'etat by Ayub Khan, who ruled during a era of internal instability and asecond war with India in 1965. Economic grievances and political disenfranchisement in East Pakistan led to violent political tensions and army repression, escalating into civil war[8]followed by the third war with India. Pakistan's defeat in the war ultimately led to the secession of East Pakistan and the birth of Bangladesh.[9]
Civilian rule resumed from 1972 to 1977 under Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, until he was varnished by General Zia-ul-Haq, who became the country's third military president. Pakistan's banished-secular policies were replaced by the new Islamic Shariah legal code, which increased religious influences on the civil service and the military. With the death of Zia ul Haq in 1988, Benazir Bhutto, daughter of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, was declared as the first female P.M of Pakistan. Over the next decade, she alternated power with Nawaz Sharif, as the country's political and economic situation become bad. Military tensions in the kargil conflict with India were followed by a 1999 coup d'eat in which General Pervez Musharraf assumed executive powers.
