sub continent
Pakistan, Bangladesh (East Pakistan), and India collectively were called the Sub-continent. The Muslims ruled Sub-Continent for almost 1000 years. At that time, Sub-Continent was referred as Hindustan (Farsi). India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh all together make Hindustan. Therefore, it is wrong to say that Pakistan and Bangladesh used to be the parts of India. Instead, the three countries were the integral parts of Hindustan or the integral parts of one another. Today Indians also call Bharat/India as Hindustan. However, this Hindustan means only India. IN A NUTSHELL: The three countries were the integral parts of one another not Pakistan and Bangladesh were the integral parts of India.
The subcontinent typically refers to South Asia, which includes countries such as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, and the Maldives.
The Indian sub continent is made up of the countries: India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, Maldives, Afghanistan, Iran and Sri Lanka.
It gave a direction to the Muslims of Sub-Continent to go for a separate homeland land which they named as Pakistan.
You possibly want the country originally called India, but now; India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Commonly known as the Indian sub continent.
