commonly known as India, is a sovereign country in South Asia with minor

in the world. India has a coastline of over seven thousand kilometres,

| Home to the Indus Valley
civilization and a region of historic trade routes and vast empires, the
Indian subcontinent was identified with its commercial and cultural wealth
for much of its long history. Four major world religions, Hinduism, Buddhism,
Jainism and Sikhism originated here, while Islam, Christianity, Judaism
and Zoroastrianism arrived in the first millennium CE and shaped India's
variegated culture. Gradually annexed by the British East India Company
from the early eighteenth century and colonised by Great Britain from the
mid-nineteenth century, India became a modern nation-state in 1947 after
a struggle for independence marked by widespread use of nonviolent resistance
as a means of social protest.
With the world's 4th largest
economy in purchasing power and 12th by exchange rates, India has made
rapid progress in the last decade, especially in information technology.
India's standard of living is projected to rise sharply in the next half-century,
although currently it continues to battle high levels of poverty, higher
levels of illiteracy among women, persistent malnutrition, and environmental
degradation. A pluralistic, multi-lingual, multi-ethnic country, India
is also home to a diversity of wildlife in a variety of protected habitats. |
