Pakistan was formed by migrating peoples, all of whom have left their footprint on its diverse cultures, languages, literature, food, dress and folklore. Pakistani culture is a mixed culture. Although the majority of people are Muslims, there are also influences of Hindu and British cultures on today’s Pakistani society
Pakistan has a semi-industrialized economy that has suffered in the past from decades of colonialism, internal
political disputes, fast population growth, high inflation, increasing poverty and terrorism. The country is frequently besieged by bad news, but despite all of the turmoil, the everyday life of its people is more stable and rewarding than the media headlines lead one to believe.
