4. Breif history punjab The Indian State of Punjab was created in 1947, when the partition of India split the former Raj province of Punjab between India and Pakistan. The mostly Muslim western part of the province became Pakistan's Punjab Province; the mostly Sikh eastern part became India's Punjab state. Or The History of the Punjab refers to the history of the  Punjab region , a geopolitical, cultural, and historical region in  South Asia , comprising areas of eastern  Pakistan  and  northern India . [1]  Ancient Punjab was the primary geographical extent of the  Indus Valley Civilisation , which was notable for advanced technologies and amenities that the people of the region had used. During the Vedic period, Punjab was referred to as  Sapta Sindhu , or the Land of Seven Rivers. Punjab was historically a  Hindu - Buddhist  region during this period, known for its high activity of scholarship, technology, and arts. Intermittent wars between various kingdoms was characteristic of this time, except in times of temporary unification under centralised   Indian Empires  or invading powers. After the arrival of  Islamic rule in India , that had managed to rule throughout a long period of the region's history, much of  Western Punjab  had become a centre of  Islamic culture  in the Indian subcontinent. An interlude of  Sikh  rule under the Maharaja  Ranjit Singh  and his  Sikh Empire  had seen a brief resurfacing of traditional culture, until the British had annexed the region into the  British Raj . Following the end of colonial rule, Punjab was partitioned on religious lines - the Sikh and Hindu majority districts forming East Punjab went to India, while the remaining Muslim districts of West Punjab went to Pakistan.
