The second highest mountain in the world is known as k2 and it's a part of the Karakoram mountain range it's like heaven for mountain climbers.

2) Pakistan has not won a medal in the Olympics since 1992. That year they won a bronze medal for field hockey. We got the Olympics coming up in 2020. So I'm just wishing Pakistan the best of luck maybe this is their year to get another medal, a gold medal.

3) Pakistan has the world's largest ambulance network, Abdul Sattar Edhi founded the world's largest volunteer ambulance network in pakistan and this network is also listed in the Guinness Book of World Records. Abdul Sattar Edhi dedicated his life to the poor from the age of 20 years old when he himself was completely broke. He passed away in the year 2016 at the age of 88 but his legacy still lives on.

4) Pakistan actually has a great meaning, it means land of the pure in Persian and urdu.

5) Pakistan is also sometimes portrayed as the little brother of India, So some people have gotten the impression that Pakistan is a small country but that definitely is not true at all. Pakistan is now the fifth most populated country in the entire world with 218 million people and that's growing fast also Pakistan has a total land area of 881,913 sq kilometers.

6) A full name for the country is the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and it is unique among other Muslim countries because it's the only Muslim country that has maintained research center in the Antarctic and that is the Jinnah antartic station or Jas for short.

7) One of the eighth wonders of the world is a Karakoram highway.  It is the highest paved international road and the highway can bring you from Pakistan to China. It is 15397 feet high and 1,300 kilometers or 800 miles long. It's also extremely dangerous as well because there's a lot of sharp rocks and turns. But it's still a beauty to look at and of course it gives Pakistan some bragging rights right.

8) In the DARPA car desert in the DARPA car district it's the only fertile desert in the world and it's also located in Pakistan. The area is a Hindu majority region with the largest Hindu population. In Pakistan now there are valleys and ridges that shoot up about 46 meters and when it rains these valleys become moist enough for grass to start growing.

9) In Pakistan there are 15,000 new babies born each and every single day. That's a whole lot of babies no wonder the country is growing so fast.

10) In 2012 the Institute of Business Administration gathered a poll from 125 countries and Pakistan came in fourth as the most intelligent country in the world. It was said that Pakistanis are equal to the people of developed and industrialised countries. when it comes to intelligence, Pakistan not only a lot of babies are being born but a lot of intelligent people are being born in that country as well.
