Someone talked about wikipedia mentioning Pakistan, so I checked it out. This is what wikipedia says:
"Siddhartha was born in Lumbini[10] and raised in the small kingdom or principality of Kapilvastu, both of which are in modern day Nepal. At the time of the Buddha's birth, the area was at or beyond the boundary of Vedic civilization, the dominant culture of northern India at the time; it is even possible that his mother tongue was not an Indo-Aryan language.[11]"
Regardless of place of birth, if Buddha is not in ones heart it does not matter whether he existed or not let alone place of birth.
