India used to include Pakistan and Bangladesh as well. Both split off in the mid 20th century. India remained mainly Hindu and the other two were Islam.

Pakistan
" But in 1947 India was split along religions lines to form the Muslim nation of Pakistan by Britain, which was ruling India at this time. "

Pakistan. If you really want extra credit, you can mention that Bangladesh (formerly East Pakistan), later split from Pakistan.

I find it interesting that somebody claims that Bangladesh split from Pakistan to form East Pakistan when these nations are separated by 100s of kms.
