If we look at the cultural and religious practices of the Harappans, we can observe the obvious and immense influence it had upon the Vedic religion and the Indian civilization in general. The practice of worshipping Mother Goddess, the discovery of Pashupati seals and Lingas throughout IVC sites, the worship of animals and pipal trees are all still alive in the practices of Hinduism which is a syncretism of the Vedic religion and the elements of the Harappans. Pakistanis, prior to they try to appropriate the Civilisation, should realise that the roots of these practices have been weeded out in their modern nation-state whose very existence is based on an Arabic religion which considers the practices of the Indus people as ignorance.

[@ارنسٹوچیگویرا]

Some historical points that the video seems to skip: 1) The history of Indus Valley started with the first migration of humans out of Africa, these were hunter gatherer people (Relic population still found in Andaman & Nicobar Islands). There remains can be found in Soan Valley, Present day Khushab, Pakistan. 2) Farmers from Elam region (Modern Iran) settled in Indus Valley, introduced Agriculture and mixed with the hunter gatherer population, giving birth to the Indus Valley Civilization. 3) Indo-Iranian tribes from central asia started to migrate to the region becoz of conflicts and climate shifts, started mixing with the Indus farmers, adopted agriculture and the religion of Hinduism was born in its present form. The caste system was introduced, encouraging people to stay within their social group and avoid further intermingling with others. Since then, there have been hardly any changes in the genetics of South Asians.

"Shared History of India and Pakistan" is not an accurate description . History of India (or Bharat) is more than 5,000 years old starting from Early Indus Valley Civilization and at its peak under Emperor Ashok Maurya (3rd Century BC aroundish) , the Mauryan Empire (Hindu[Chandragupta Maurya] to Buddhist [Ashoka Maurya]) spanned over modern day Afghanistan , Pakistan & India. This was all before Islam even existed. History of Pakistan starts from only 1947 because Pakistan is primarily just people of Indian religions who were forcefully (or not) converted into Islam & their descendants later demanding a nation of their own where Islam would be the main & (these days) only religion.

The Greek ambassador Megasthenes referred to the entire Mauryan Empire as India. The Chinese traveler Xuanzang called this cultural and civilizational region Yindu and Tainzhu. Arabs, Turks, and Persians referred to it as Al-Hind, Hindustan, and Hindisten. The Bible mentions India as Hodu. Persians labeled the people of Hindustan as Hindus, encompassing those who follow Vedic Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism, sharing similar religious and cultural practices. All these terms share the root "ind" or "hind," derived from the Sanskrit word "Sindh" or "Sindhu," which is the name of the holy river in Hinduism, recognized before the Ganges, and where the Vedas were compiled.

Don't mind the salty dudes. Just as Ukraine shares slavic history with Russia so do we with a nation which insisted on taking the name of the civilization Pakistan, bangladesh, Nepal, bhutan, Sri Lanka & Maldives are a part of as well, successors of the Indian civilization. Also the founding of Vedic scripts was thousands of years after the collapse of the Indus Valley civilization which was invaded & converted by indo aryans ironically today's Indians. This political narrative of a unified Pacifist hindu india being invaded by hostile Muslim forces is all but a faux. This history is shared by Pakistan & India as. It is neither Muslim or Hindu.

Good to know that the caste system is absent in the Indus valley civilization! 😊 The portrayals of the Indus Valley Civ based on available evidences is somewhat similar to how I envision an ideal society should be. :)

The Aryans hadn't invaded south Asia then and Hinduism didn't existed then, so it was mostly absent

It's obvious that the caste system were brought by the people who were not native to the region itself yet they will be so overproud and denial thinking that they always there as their god were originated from there before any civilization and any religions in this world 😂

NOW- saar WE SINDHI PUNJABIS ARE people of indusvalley.. In reality, Pakistanis are essentially western Indians who were Islamized during the conquests by empires that took over parts of western and northern India. If partition had not occurred, these individuals would be considered the same as other Indian Muslims. According to genetic studies, the people of northern India and the majority of Pakistanis (excluding Balochistan and Pashtuns) are genetically very similar. The primary difference lies in the predominant religion of the majority.

We are still a peace loving nation .still free of religious bigotry though ruling elites want to change our ideological convictions of peaceful coexistence by funding mullahs. Even this moment hundreds of Sindhi activists, man and women , fathers and daughters ,are being arrested by the police in teen talwar roundabout of Karachi، our capital city .
