Kashmir?

Submitted by Dimby on November 28, 2024

Have you noticed that the map on Countries of the World Quiz has a little grey area for Kashmir? I never noticed that before today.

I've noticed it and I've just assumed it was the Siachen Glacier

I didn't notice earlier, but I wasn't exactly looking for it. I wonder if there is already an assigned path we can call to make it light up

That's the Siachen Glacier. It's the area where the Line of Control is not defined and thus is shown as neutral territory.

And everyone once in a while we get a "helpful" user that tells us its against the law of India to depict the map that way.

Instead, we are supposed to draw it in a way that gives India all of Kashmir, even the parts that they don't control.

At some point we might be forced to IP ban the whole country.

Who needs reality when you can pass laws to force people to believe what you want them to believe?
