You are smart but I am smarter.
Keep your fatwas to yourself madrassah boy
"Land of the pure" is obnoxious. Nobody likes people who are full of themselves or state the obvious like "Islamic republic" blah blah yes we get it. Need to be warm and inviting to attract tourists and trade. Another reason to change.
New Recruit
Better you get lost to your Bongadesh..Stan represent a village or town center not a country.
Pakistan can certainly change its name.
It should start from "Islamic Republic" to "Peoples Republic"
You have an inferiority complex. There is nothing wrong with Pakistan.This title of "Islamic republic of Pakistan" is too harsh on the tongue. How many stans exist? Too many. Its too common. Need to become unique. Pakistan needs to be re imagined, reconstructed to be fit for the modern world.
Rename it.
I propose Indus.
It ties in with the cultural, historical and geographical heritage and separates it from all the stans especially Afghanistan. Its time to delink and and create a new identity.
Please? Have you ever been to any of them. I have and it annoyed me being there. In fact I was upset. The reason was simple. Unlike Europe or America these places are right next door to us. For instance Dushanbe, Tajikistan is 500 miles from Islamabad, Tashkent, Uzbekistan is 700 miles from Islamabad and both are closer then Karachi is. The people are of Muslim stock and not too dissimiliar to us. However this is where things get shocking. Dushanbe is more like a Eastern European city then Asiatic. Orderly and compared to Pakistan clean etc. I only wish Pakistan was like that. Tajikistan by the way is smaller then K-Pk province.all the "stans" its kazakistan , turkistan , uzbikistan , azerbaijan
we are democratic they are super autocratic dictatorships also new dehli , tehran or kabul are comparatviely a lot more closer than any of these aliens and except religion we have nothing in common , their languages or cultures have nothing , zilch , zero to do with us .. you my friend is comparing amroods with kinoos , sorry totally illogicalPlease?

Uzbekistan
Fact. Islamabad is closer to Dushanbe then it is to Sindh. It is exactly 400 miles away. And I was not talking about democracy - the same democracy that have us Altaf Hussain, Mr 10%, Nawaz Sharif and before that we had miltary dictatorships. I was answering the charge that other 'stans' are failed. They are in far better condition then Pakistan despite being next door to us. Despite being 400 miles away Dushanbe could be in Europe. That was point. It is cleaner, tidier, better, safer, people more orderly, living better life then most of Pakistan so I have no idea why we look down on them.we are democratic they are super autocratic dictatorships also new dehli , tehran or kabul are comparatviely a lot more closer than any of these aliens and except religion we have nothing in common
Its not undoing, its giving it a unique identity.
Macedonia are renaming their country so why not.
So...Uncle if "OTHER people are doing it and we should do it too"...HOW does that make it a "UNIQUE" move?Its not. Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan.
This is what the Kzakh president said about this:
Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev doesn't like the name Kazakhstan.
"Kazakhstan has the 'stan' ending like many other nations of Central Asia. At the same time, foreigners take an interest in Mongolia, the population of which makes up only two million, but its name does not end in '-stan,'" he told onlookers while visiting a school in Atyrau, according to his official website. "Perhaps, eventually it is necessary to consider an issue of changing the name of our country into the 'Kazakh Nation', but first of all, it should necessarily be discussed with people." (His proposed name would be rendered as "Kazakh Eli" in English.)
We are shaped by relative distance not absolute distance. Absolute distance does play a role but it is not as predictive of outcomes. Central Asia is logistically linked closely with Russia and was part of the Russian Empire/Soviet sphere of influence thus resulting in the Eastern European feel, many are comfortable with the culture.Unlike Europe or America these places are right next door to us. For instance Dushanbe, Tajikistan is 500 miles from Islamabad, Tashkent, Uzbekistan is 700 miles from Islamabad and both are closer then Karachi is.
