Answer:

The North-West Frontier Province (NWFP; Pashto: شمال لویدیځ سرحدي ولایت‎) was a province of British India and later of Pakistan. It was established in 1901 and known by this name until 2010. The area became Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on 19 April 2010 when the Eighteenth Amendment was signed by President Asif Ali Zardari.

The province covered an area of 70,709 km², including much of the current Khyber Pakhtunkhwa but excluding the former princely states of Amb, Chitral, Dir, Phulra, and Swat, and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas. The capital was the city of Peshawar, and the province was composed of six divisions (Bannu, Dera Ismail Khan, Hazara, Kohat, Mardan, and Peshawar; Malakand was added later as seventh division). Until 1947, the province was bordered by five princely states to the north, the minor states of the Gilgit Agency to the northeast, the province of West Punjab to the east and the province of Balochistan to the south. Afghanistan lay to the northwest, with the Federally Administered Tribal Areas forming a buffer zone.
