The National Monument in Islamabad, Pakistan is a national monument representing the four provinces and three territories of Pakistan.

The four main petals of the monument represent the four provinces (Balochistan, North West Frontier Province, Punjab, and Sindh), while the three smaller petals represent the three territories (Northern Areas, Azad Kashmir and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas).
