Did Ancient Pakistanis Defeated The Mighty Alexander The Great.,

[simplelogic]

i am horrified with this thread..

What if some how Pakistan setups and remote base on mars and luckily finds some artifacts of some ancient Martian civilization who lived there...would they call them as ancient Pakistanis (According to logic of My fellow Pakistanis that geographically the land is theirs and so does its history)

HELL NO!

History of Ancient Pakistan

Glory to our Motherland, which has been distinct and known the world over, as the land of the Indus, it is mentioned in this distinct context.

HELL NO!

But the fatal flaw in your theory is that the people of Pakistan are the same people who built that great civilization, whereas a Martian base would be a new acquisition.

We have been here since the dawn of humanity.

The first known inhabitants of the modern-day Pakistan region are believed to have been the Soanian - Homo erectus, who settled in the Soan Valley and Riwat almost 2 million years ago. Over the next several thousand years, the region would develop into various civilizations like Mehrgarh and the Indus Valley Civilization.

No it isn't

Both mention Indus valley civilization.

replace the word in bold with "Jhooth"...and then see it from Indian view how funny it is to try to prove something which is just a plain lie.

Porus was a hindu is a well known fact..whats the doubt on it ?? Indians so far have given a better and logical arguments than your Pakistani friends,you will easily know it it, if you have any knowledge of history...read them carefully and honestly judge whats the truth.

Yes no doubt that he was a hindu but BIENG a Hindu does not mean being an Indian.

Hindu is not a second name of India.It is a name of religion and every person living on any place in the world with any race can be a hindu.

And PORUS hindu belongs to modern day's Pakistan and he was an ancestor of Pakistanis.

Because islam was not present at that time and hinduism was the major religion so his bieng hindu is obvious.

But hey India too was not present at that time so how he could become an indian??


But IVC was surely present at that time and the Race of IVC is now known as Pakistani.

So he was a hindu ancestor,Fore Father of Pakistani's.

The connection of the modern state of india, with the IVC is tenuous, 90% of the IVC is contiguous with Pakistan

Just 1 question .. can all gujarathis and few marathis who were also part of Indus valley civilisation .. also a few from some northern indian modern states..

What will we call them now??

Benny that map of the IVC is doctored, the majority of internationally accepted IV sites are located in Pakistan, Ancient Persia included most of the middle east, near east, but the homeland of the Persians is acknowledged to be what Iran is today.

it was easier to call it one thing rather than call it by what it REALLY was.....point is, what is today india was never really a single large united entity --unless of course you look at what it was during the golden years (Mughal empire)

If you miss the history, then know that in Chadragupta Morya, Ashoka, Vikramaditya had ruled almost the whole Indian subcontinent much earlier.

Most of the empires that lumped the Indus Valley with the Ganges Planes was for but a brief time compared with the more than 5000 years of our unique civilization.

Origins of Indian civilization lies here,hence the term tenuous is wrong.

, 90% of the IVC is contiguous with Pakistan

Modern state of Israel is contiguous with Iron Age kingdoms of the ancient Levant,those being Israel and Judah.

We are talking of an age where there was no real sense of knowledge about nationhood or anything.. civilisations thrived on all around the world and people moved seeing the geographical benefits. if they have chosen another river delta that area would have been a greater civilisation too.. its not that they just grow up in there like tree from a seed. these people moved in search of food and often settled in places they find it more inhabitable..There were no borders or strict visa control posts.

I dont know why internet wariiors are fighting over this nationality issue.
