<h3>What was the most important event in the 20th century for Pakistan?</h3>

I need to do a history essay about Pakistan and the most important or effective thing that happened there during the twentieth century. I have tried to do some research but i honestly have no idea.
Any suggestions?

<p><i>Answer by Whortleberry</i><br/>I suspect the answer to your question is the partition of India, in 1948 (I believe). That partition cut off a piece of India and named in Pakistan.</p>
