Pakistan did not exist as a nation during WWII. The territory that is now Pakistan was still a part of India, and all of India was a colony of Great Britain. India was granted its independence in 1947, after the war. At the same time Pakistan was created, as a homeland for the Muslim population of India. Most of the inhabitants of the area were Muslims, but any Hindus living in what became Pakistan were basically forced out, and made to move to India. Similarly, Muslims residing in parts of India which were not in the new Pakistan were likewise forced to move to the new Muslim nation of Pakistan. At that time, in 1947, and for many years after, there was East Pakistan and West Pakistan. West Pakistan is what is today Pakistan, and East Pakistan is now Bangladesh.
