History
Pakistan ratified its first Constitution in 1956, declaring itself an Islamic Republic. Following a 1958 coup d'etat, the constitution was rewritten in 1962. The Pakistan Constitution has been amended, rewritten, overturned, and reinstated several times, but always includes Islamic provisions to insure that Pakistan remains an Islamic republic. -
