Today, Kashmir is effectively divided into two Indian union territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. There is also the self-proclaimed unrecognized state of Azad Kashmir ("free Kashmir") and the Gilgit-Baltistan region ("northern territories"), both controlled by Pakistan. And the territory of Aksaychin is under the jurisdiction of the People's Republic of China.
