Abstract
This paper explores the geopolitical factors that influence national security in Pakistan based on a strategic and historical discussion of some of the major events and policy-making moments since 1947 to date. It also examines key stages such as the problems of Partition, the early alliances, wars with India, the loss of East Pakistan, the nuclearization, the Afghan war, the security environment post 9/11, and the modern problems of geo-economic programs, instability in the region, and hybrid warfare.  Researcher used Qualitative method of research through secondary resources. The findings note that the security policies in Pakistan are mostly reactionary to the external geopolitical pressures with the necessity of having a balanced and adaptive national security approach in a regional and global environment that has become very complex.
