History
The Baloch holds a significant place in the history of Sindh. The Talpurs, originally a Baloch tribe, ruled Sindh from 1783 to 1843. A significant population in sindh have Baloch root about 4 million.It is believed that the Balochs migrated from Balochistan during the Little Ice Age. The Little Ice Age is conventionally defined as a period extending from the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries, or alternatively, from about 1300 to about 1850. Although climatologists and historians working with local records no longer expect to agree on either the start or end dates of this period, which varied according to local conditions.
According to Dr Akhtar Baloch of the University of Karachi, the climate of Balochistan was very cold and the region was uninhabitable during the winter so the Baloch people migrated in waves and settled in Sindh and Punjab.
