    India divided into two different countries, after winning independence from Britain, due to religious differences between (India) Hindus and (Pakistan) Muslims.

    In the "Mountbatten Plan", India and Pakistan was split with the "Radcliffe Line". This allowed for the mobilization of citizens as well as the ability to choose where to live (India or Pakistan) due to the split by religious majority.
