英文注释:

"Otherworldly terrain of the Karakoram Range makes for uplifting scenery, but the region's political landscape poses a dispiriting thicket of claims and counterclaims. Fifty years ago the area was part of the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir. Since partition both Pakistan and India have claimed the state, fueling a dispute that has ignited two wars and that still resists a political fix."

—From "The Promise of Pakistan," October 1997, National Geographic magazine
