Country Background:

The Indus Valley civilization, one
of the oldest in the world, dates back at least 5,000 years. Aryan tribes from
the northwest infiltrated onto Indian lands about 1500 B.C.; their merger with
the earlier Dravidian inhabitants created the classical Indian culture. Arab
incursions starting in the 8th century and Turkish in the 12th were followed by
those of European traders, beginning in the late 15th century. By the 19th
century, Britain had assumed political control of virtually all Indian lands.
Indian armed forces in the British army played a vital role in both World Wars.
Nonviolent resistance to British colonialism led by Mohandas GANDHI and
Jawaharlal NEHRU brought independence in 1947. The subcontinent was divided into
the secular state of India and the smaller Muslim state of Pakistan. A third war
between the two countries in 1971 resulted in East Pakistan becoming the
separate nation of Bangladesh.
