This is week D16
The unit topic is Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran
This is an interesting hot spot of the world, a little belt of countries nestled between India and Iraq.
Pakistan was actually split off of India for religious reasons; since Hindu is the main religion of India, Muslims wanted their own country so they would have a fair voice in things.
