    The geographyofPakistanis a profound blend of landscapes varyingfrom plains to deserts, forests, hills, and plateaus ranging from the

    coastal areas of theArabian Seain the south to the mountains of theKarakoramrange in the north. Pakistan geologically overlaps bothwith the Indianand the urasiantectonic plateswhere its SindhandPun!abprovinces lie on the north"western corner of the Indian platewhile #alochistanand most of the Khyber"Pakhtunkhwalie within theurasian plate which mainly comprises the Iranian plateau, someparts of the $iddle astand %entral Asia. The &orthern Areasand

    A'ad Kashmirlie mainly in %entral Asia along the edge of the Indianplate and hence are prone to violent earth(uakeswhere the twotectonic plates collide.

    Pakistan is bordered byAfghanistanto the north"west and Iranto thewest while the People)s *epublic of %hinaborders the country in thenorth and India to the east. The nation is geopolitically placed withinsome of the most controversial regional boundaries which sharedisputes and have many"a"times escalated military tensions betweenthe nations, e.g., that of Kashmirwith India and the +urand inewith

    Afghanistan. Its western borders include the Khyber Passand #olanPassthat have served as traditional migration routes between %entral

    urasiaand South Asia.

    The Pakistan"India boundary continues irregularly southward forabout 6,;2 kilometers, following the line of the 69/4 *adcliffe

    Award, named for Sir %yril *adcliffe, the head of the #ritish boundarycommission on the division of the Pun!ab of Pakistan and in united#engalof India into Pakistan)s astern wing of $ashri(i"Pakistan on63 August 69/4. Although this boundary with India referring only topresent"day Pakistan and not aimed at formerly ast Pakistanborders e5cept only all three governments claiming the status of thedistrict of Diro'purand Pathankotbetween Pakistan and India. Itremains another unresolved issue although it is not formally disputed=passions still run very high indeed on both sides of the internationalborder. $any had e5pected the original boundary line to run farther tothe west, thereby ceding the ahore region to India, possibly grantingthem all of >u!ranwala +ivision- Sialkot, &arowal, >u!rat, districts and

    Sheikhupura, @kara, Kasurdistrictsof ahore +ivision= and othershad e5pected the line to run much farther east, possibly grantingthem control of +elhi, the imperial capital of the $ughal mpireincluding an east Pun!ab state for Sikhs of their own to govern.

    The southern borders are far less contentious than those in northernPakistan 0Kashmir1. The Thar +esert in the province of Sindhisseparated in the south from the salt flats of the *ann of Kachchh0Kutch1 by a boundary that was first delineated in 693"/. Afterindependence and dissolution of mpire, Independent and freePakistan contested the southern boundary of Sindh, and asuccession of border incidents resulted. They were less dangerousand less widespread, however, than the conflict that erupted inKashmir in the Indo"Pakistani ar of August 698: started with thisdecisive core of issues. These southern hostilities were ended by#ritish mediation during

The arsak +am on the Kabul *iver nearPeshawar is smaller. These dams, along with a series of headworksand barrages built by the #ritish and e5panded since independence,are of vital importance to the national economy and played animportant role in calming the raging floodwater of 699, whichdevastated large areas in the northern highlands and the Pun!abplains.

These generali'ations should not,however, obscure the distinct differences e5isting among particularlocations.
