Why has Pakistan been swallowed by India now?

And why is Jordan part of Palestine, when as far as I know Jordan has been independent since the RP began?

I'd forgotten but actually Pakistan had been a part of India till the civil war, and it was decided between Persia and China that the federal state resulting from the armistice would comprise it as well.

I didn't remember that concerning Jordan. In most maps it's included in the Ottoman Empire.
