Why India fights Pakistan
After a brief moment where two nuclear powers looked to be on the verge of war, India and Pakistan have agreed to a temporary ceasefire. But Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi says it's not an end to hostilities, just a pause.

Over the next two episodes, we're going to take a look at both sides: India and then Pakistan. Why they want to fight, and what they have to lose.
