Fact 1 - A little more than two-thirds of the population of Pakistan is literate. This is due likely to the fact that over 48% of the population of Pakistan is female, who are not allowed by society to recieve an education in most areas.
Fact 2 - Most citizens of Pakistan attend madrasahs, or Islamic religious schools. Women however are not accepted at these schools due to the fact that the Islamic religion does not hold women to the same standards as men
Pictured below are students at a madrasah is Pakistan receiving religious education

Fact 1: The main religion in Pakistan is Muslim with about 97% of whole population.  They practice Islamic beliefs. If you aren't Muslim they would most likely be either Hindus or Christian. 

Fact 2:  The Muslim faith has a whole month were you have to eat before sunrise or after sundown. So basically you have to fast(not eat for long period of time) when the sun is showing. You may think that this only affects Muslims, and if you did your wrong. It is polite for all non-Muslims to not eat in front of Muslims when the sun is showing

This image is showingmany Muslim citizens praying in a Mosque.  A Mosque is where they go to learn about their faith.]]> 2019-01-14 18:40:27 UTC https://padlet.com/13787_38_1/swcnqt968l2z/wish/320458762 Jaretzi Sandre 142143 https://padlet.com/13787_38_1/swcnqt968l2z/wish/320458941 Daily life (life experiences)

Fact 1 - In Pakistan, an extremely low percentage of the overall population has complete and simple access to clean and safe drinking water. This is not only limited to one area of Pakistan as well, presenting itself itself as a national crisis.
Fact 2-  Pakistan, as of right now, is facing a national health crisis. An extremely low percentage of the population receive health care, making it very hard to seek treatment for illness for some citizens of Pakistan. This also includes the access to actual hospitals and treatment. Pakistan is extremely lacking in modern medical technology, making treatment for serious illness very hard in Pakistan.
As evident in the hospital pictured below, Pakistanis have very limited access to good and helpful medical care
