Studies suggest that some of the ethnic groups of northern India and of the Middle East are descended from Indo-European speaking peoples who are believed to have originated somewhere in the region of the Caucuses Mountains several thousand years ago. This is the origin of the term "Caucasian."

Is Pakistan in the middle east?

No Pakistan is not middle eastern it is in South Asia. just because it is mainly a Muslim country does not make it middle eastern. Bangladesh and Indonesia are Muslim countries too and they are NEVER said to be middle eastern. Just because Pakistan has problems with terrorist does not make it middle eastern either. Pakistan used to be part of the Indian empire so was Bangladesh and so how could Pakistan be middle eastern if it used to be part of the Indian empire? it has Indian races too not middle eastern so that makes it obvious Pakistan is NOT Middle Eastern. Also, the Middle East is part of Asia. This is like asking "Is France a European country or a Nordic country". (Nordic means Northern European)
