Names of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Okay, so you know how you have a name that people call you by, right? Well, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is a place where lots of people live, and just like you have a name, this place also has a name. But, there are actually lots of names for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa because different people have called it different names over time.

Some people call it KPK for short, and that's because it's named after two places called Khyber and Pakhtunkhwa. Khyber is a mountain range in the area, and Pakhtunkhwa means "land of the pure."

Now, some people who live there have been calling it something else for a long time, and that's "Khyber." That's because the Khyber Pass is a really important part of the area, and it's been used for a long time as a way for people to travel between different countries.

So, you might hear people calling it Khyber or KPK or something else, but they all mean the same place where lots of people live together.
