One of the world’s longest rivers, the Indus, runs across the nation and supplies water for hydropower production and irrigation.

Pakistan’s climate ranges from being desert in the south to being moderate in the north. Winters may be chilly, especially in the northern mountainous regions where snowfall is prevalent, but summers are often hot, with temperatures topping 40°C (104°F) in certain places.

Pakistan’s society and culture are diverse and multiethnic, and it has a long history. Islam is practiced by the vast majority of people, and Islamic customs and ideals have a significant impact on Pakistani culture.
