Kashmir is a land-locked region in South Asia found between the borders of India, Pakistan,
and China. The region is enveloped by the Himalayas, with the Indus River and its tributaries flowing
across its land. It intersects South Asia (India, Afghanistan, and Pakistan) and East Asia (China)—
which gives it great geopolitical importance. Due to its strategic geography and resources, Kashmir
has been the subject of a decades-long dispute which is testimony to one of the biggest and
bloodiest military occupations in the world.
