Amanistan-World Building Concept

Ever since their birth as two separate countries in 1947, India and Pakistan have been psychologically obsessed with their various mutual conflicts. They have fought four conventional wars and regularly display their nuclear capability to outpace and undermine each other. From the outside, it resembles nothing so much as a family feud.

My idea revolves around the question that would have happened if the India-Pakistan partition wouldn’t have taken place. We never know what would have happened if Pakistan had not been partitioned. But we can speculate about the possibilities of how a combined India-Pakistan would have a tremendous impact on the world scene.

I got inspired by the concept of coexistence and started building a hybrid state where Hindus and Muslims can live freely without the tension that was created between them during the time of British colonization. My research is based on cultural appropriation, cultural diversity, and the Marxist theory of Antonio Gramsci which states that In Marxist philosophy, cultural hegemony is the domination of a culturally diverse society by the ruling class who manipulate the culture of that society, the beliefs, explanations, perceptions, values.
