==History==
=== Independence and Cold War ===
Kalatistan gained independence from the British Empire in 1960. The country's first president, Aqbil Zardari, was elected to lead Kalatistan into a new era of independence and progress.
During the Cold War, Kalatistan proclaimed itself a neutral country, avoiding alignment with either the Western or Eastern bloc. This decision was made in order to maintain sovereignty and independence, as well as to avoid becoming entangled in international conflicts.
=== Invasion of Afghanistan and Annexation ===
In 1979, the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, prompting Kalatistan to side with the United States. Kalati forces joined the fight against the Soviet invasion, with their main objective being to protect their own borders and prevent the spread of communism. During the Afghan Civil War (1996–1998), Kalati forces invaded Afghanistan with support from the United States, eventually leading to the surrender of both the government and the Taliban. As a result, Afghanistan was annexed by Kalatistan in 1998 and has remained part of the country to this day.
=== Raja Revolution ===
The Raja Revolution of 2005 saw the overthrow of the dictator Tehfiz Lanjwani and his government. This marked the beginning of a new era of democracy and freedom in Kalatistan. Since then, elections have been held every five years, and the president is limited to two terms in office. Though democracy has improved in the country, it is still considered unfree and illiberal, with the Muslim League holding a strong grip on Kalati politics.
=== Insurgencies ===
Since 2005, Kalatistan has faced several Islamist insurgencies, aimed at overthrowing the democratic government and establishing an Islamic state. These insurgencies have been met with strong resistance from the Kalati military, which has received support from the United States in their fight against terrorism.
== Geopolitics ==
Kalatistan's main allies are Kalancia, the United States, and China. Kalancia is a fellow Asian country, which shares close ties with Kalatistan. The United States, as mentioned earlier, has been a strong supporter of Kalatistan in their fight against terrorism. Kalatistan also has a strategic partnership with China, with both countries investing in each other's economies and promoting mutual cooperation.
Kalatistan's relations with its neighbors, India and Iran, have been strained due to territorial disputes. India claims the region of Jammu and Kashmir to be a part of their country, while Iran claims the province of Balochistan. These border disputes have led to clashes in the past.
==Politics ==
The Muslim League holds a majority in Kalatistan's parliament. The current president of Kalatistan is Yunus Sarbani, who was elected in 2021. The president of Kalatistan is the head of state and commander-in-chief of the country's armed forces. The president is also the custodian of the constitution, with the duty to preserve, protect and defend it. The president is elected for a five-year term.
