The region of Jammu and Kashmir spans about 222,236 km². Of this: • India controls ~55%, which includes Jammu, the Kashmir Valley, and Ladakh. • Pakistan controls ~30%, which includes Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan. • China controls ~15%, including Aksai Chin and the Shaksgam Valley (the latter ceded by Pakistan). These divisions result from the territorial disputes following the 1947 partition and later conflicts between India, Pakistan, and China.
