Would it be possible to form some sort of union of Afghanistan and (West) Pakistan after 1947? What would it be likely to look like: federal or unitary, republican or monarchical (under the Afghan king)?
The pathans would not be happy with the punjabis ruling them
and the British had no power to force afghanistan into a union.
The 'A' is already in Pakistan, Afghan used to a synonym of Pashtun, who are part of Pakistan in the north-west.
I'm quite aware that there are Pashtuns in the northwest, thank you very much.
So why the thread title? There already is an A in Pakistan.
