Advertising Free Credit Report Free Psychics Advertisement India Dateline: 08/18/97 Last week, India (map) celebrated fifty years of independence from the United Kingdom. As the largest democracy in the world, the relatively young nation struggles with incredible diversity, both cultural and physical. Cultural India's population of 952 million is second only to China in terms of population. It is expected that India's growth rate of 1.64 percent will cause it to surpass China (population 1.2 billion, growth rate 1.0%) in the number of people during the 21st century. The sixteen official languages of India, the five major religions, and the caste system create somewhat chaotic conditions for the nation. The United Nation's Human Development Index rates India the third worst in Asia, just above Bangladesh and Laos; there are millions of poor living in urban slums. India holds two of the world's largest metropolitan areas . Mumbai (formerly Bombay) has over 16 million people and is the world's fifth largest area; Calcutta is the tenth largest and has a population of 12 million.

Little India - Geography India, the land of diverse cultures and religions, a multitude of languages, traditions and festivals, flora and fauna, is a country that every Indian is proud of. India, also called Bharat, is the largest democracy in the world. India is the world's second biggest country in terms of population, and the seventh largest in area. India is a peninsular country, located in South East Asia. It has vast geographical diversity ranging from mountains to lakes and from forests to rivers. The Location: India is located in the northern hemisphere. The Himalayan ranges crown the northern boundary of India. The Bay of Bengal lies to the east, the Arabian sea is to the west and the Indian Ocean is to the south of the country. To the north west of India is Pakistan, while Afganistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan are in the north, and Myanmar is in the east. Bangla- desh, Nepal and Bhutan are surrounded on three sides by the Indian territory and Sri Lanka is separated by the Palk strait in the south. The Land: In the north are the Himalayas and their foothills. Parallel with the Himalayas are the northern plains, which extend from east to west. These plains were originally a marine gulf between India and the mainland of Asia. This gulf has been filled by deposits brought down by rivers, especially the Ganges and the Bhramaputra. Most of southern India is formed by the Deccan, a vast plateau sloping toward the east. At its western edge lie the Western Ghats with a narrow coastal plain while to the east lie the Eastern Ghats, a lower range of hills with a broader coastal plain. The Vindhyas and Ajanta hills form the northern boundary of the Deccan. India's tallest mountain is the k

I ndia is a land of lofty mountains and mighty rivers. Extensive are its plains and no less wide are its plateaus. A vast land with such varied relief is inhabited by about 950 million people. The country consists of three main physical divisions. They are the Great Mountains of the North, the Great Plains of Northern India and the Great Plateau of Peninsular India. The southern plateau is flanked by the narrow coastal strips which are a part and parcel of the peninsular land mass. Great Mountains The mountains extending between the Pamir Plateau and the Indus river in Kashmir are known as the Karakoram Mountains. Those between the Indus and the Brahmaputra are known as the Himalaya, meaning the 'abode of snow'. The eastern section of these mountains in Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim is known as the Eastern Himalaya. The Karakoram Mountains in the northern part of Kashmir are the north-western extension of the Himalaya. K-2, the world's second highest mountain peak, belongs to this mountain range. The other important ranges of the Kashmir Himalaya are the Ladakh, the Zanskar and the Pirpanjal. The northernmost range of the Himalaya proper is known as the Himadri. Loftiest Himalayan range contains the world's highest peak with an elevation of 8,848 metres above sea level. Some of the other important peaks are Nanga Parbat, Nanda Devi, Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Makalu, Manaslu and Kanchenjunga.

Search or look it up in the Encyclopedia Britannica Contact Information Introduction From the earliest settlements along the Indus River, the Dravidians and later the Aryans spread their settlements deep into the sub-continent. Protected by geographic barriers, the valley inhabitants had limited contact with the outside world. Farmers cultivated cotton and processed it into cloth which became a valuable trade commodity. Their cities were well planned with shops, granaries, extensive sewer systems and protective walls. Two major religions, Buddhism and Hinduism, developed in India and spread throughout Asia. Art served religion well in India. The artists of the area cut unique Buddhist Temples from rocky cliffs with facades and interiors intricately carved to imitate the wooden constructions of the period. From the earliest simple structures to the ornate and imposing later ones, the Hindu Temples must be appreciated as sculpture as well as architecture. Their paintings, particularly from the Gupta dynasty, are classed as some of the finest in history.

India India's History Adventure in India Asia Homepage The World "So far as I am able to judge, nothing has been left undone, either by man or nature, to make India the most extraordinary country that the sun visits on his rounds. Nothing seems to have been forgotten, nothing overlooked." Mark Twain, from Following the Equator I t is impossible not to be astonished by India. Nowhere on Earth does humanity present itself in such a dizzying, creative burst of cultures and religions, races and tongues. Every aspect of the country presents itself on a massive, exaggerated scale, worthy in comparison only to the superlative mountains that overshadow it. Perhaps the only thing more difficult than to be indifferent to India would be to describe or understand India completely. Set apart from the rest of Asia by the supreme continental wall of the Himalayas, the Indian subcontinent touches three large bodies of water and is immediately recognizable on any world map. It is the huge, terrestrial beak between Africa and Indonesia. This thick, roughly triangular peninsula defines the Bay of Bengal to the east, the Arabian sea to the west, and the India Ocean to the south. India's puzzleboard of 26 states holds virtually every kind of landscape imaginable. An abundance of mountain ranges and

Biodiversity Profile of India Contents Geography and Major Biomes Wetlands Forests Marine Environment ... References Geography and Major Biomes India is the seventh largest country in the world and Asia's second largest nation with an area of 3,287,263 square km. The Indian mainland stretches from 8 4' to 37 6' N latitude and from 68 7' to 97 25' E longitude Figure 1 . It has a land frontier of some 15,200 kms and a coastline of 7,516 km (Government of India, 1985). India's northern frontiers are with Xizang (Tibet) in the Peoples Republic of China, Nepal and Bhutan. In the north-west, India borders on Pakistan; in the north-east, China and Burma; and in the east, Burma. The southern peninsula extends into the tropical waters of the Indian Ocean with the Bay of Bengal lying to the south-east and the Arabian Sea to the south-west. For administrative purposes India is divided into 24 states and 7 union territories. The country is home to around 846 million people, about 16% of the World's population (1990 figures). Summary data for India are given in Appendix 1 Physically the massive country is divided into four relatively well defined regions - the Himalayan mountains, the Gangetic river plains, the southern (Deccan) plateau, and the islands of Lakshadweep, Andaman and Nicobar. The Himalayas in the far north include some of the highest peaks in the world. The highest mountain in the Indian Himalayas is Khangchenjunga (8586 m) which is located in Sikkim on the border with Nepal. To the south of the main Himalayan massif lie the Lesser Himalaya, rising to 3,600- 4,600 m, and represented by the Pir Panjal in Kashmir and Dhaula dhar in Himachal Pradesh. Further south, flanking the Indo-Gangetic Plain, are the Siwaliks which rise to 900-1,500 m.

Home About Us Search India's Main Page India's Geography India covers 3,287,263 sq km, which extends from the Himalayas, the world's highest mountains, to the southern tropical rain forests. It is the seventh largest country in the world and the mountains and sea that surround India separate it from other parts of Asia. In the shape of a triangle, India's topography is greatly varied in that there although there are deserts and rain forests, much of it's land is comprised of fertile river plains and high plateaus. Some of the main rivers that flow through India are the Ganges, Brahmaputra and the Indus. These rivers start in the high mountains and carry down rich alluvial soil to the plains below, thus creating the fertile river plains. The climate in India is characterized as tropical-monsoon. Seasonal winds determine the climate. There is a north-east monsoon that is known as the winter monsoon and it goes across the land to the sea. The south-west monsoon is called the summer monsoon as it comes from the sea and blows across the land. This monsoon brings the highest amount of rainfall to the country. More...
